Instructions
Pommes Mousseline:
Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C). Dice potatoes into a medium dice, and transfer to cold, salted water. Boil until tender. Strain and transfer to baking sheet and bake for 3 to 5 minutes. Using the same pot, heat cream to a gentle simmer. Remove potatoes from oven and place in ricer. Rice the potatoes into a tamis, then use a spatula to push through the tamis into a clean pot. Finish the mousseline with cream, butter, and grated Parmesan over low heat until fully incorporated. Adjust seasoning as needed. Cover and keep warm.
Broccolini Purée:
Season a large pot of water with salt and bring to a boil. Cook broccolini florets for 4 minutes or until tender. Drain and place broccolini in a blender with the reserved cooking liquid and butter. Blend on high speed until smooth. Adjust for seasoning and consistency as needed. Cover and keep warm.
California Prune Reduction:
Add beef stock to a sauce pot on high heat and reduce by half. Add California Prunes and reduce by half again, then with an electric blender, blend until perfectly smooth. Strain into a sauce pot and return to heat and mount with cold, cubed butter just before serving.
Dry-Aged Frenched Rib Steak:
Tie the steaks with butcher’s twine, (to maintain its round shape) and pat dry. Generously season both sides with salt and pepper. Heat pan on medium high heat, add canola oil and sear steaks for 2 minutes on each side. Place in a 325°F (160°C) oven until internal temperature reaches 110°F (45°C). Remove from oven. Return pan to the stove with the butter, garlic cloves, rosemary sprigs and baste the steaks for 2 minutes, then let rest.
Garlic Confit Cherry Tomatoes:
Place Alberta Highwood Crossing canola oil and garlic cloves in a sauce pot and heat to 200°F (90°C). Remove from heat and let sit for 10 minutes. Add tomatoes and allow to infuse in the oil for 20 to 30 minutes. Drain tomatoes before plating and lightly season with salt.
Roasted Carrots with TabascoⓇ Chipotle Pepper Sauce and Club HouseⓇ Spice Rub:
Preheat oven to 400°F (205°C). Scrub and cut carrots in half lengthwise. Rub with equal parts TabascoⓇ Chipotle Pepper Sauce and canola oil and roast in the oven for 15 minutes. Remove carrots from oven and evenly sprinkle with Club HouseⓇspice rub, add butter and return to the oven for another 5 minutes.
Plate each steak with a spoonful of pommes mousseline and broccolini purée, place 3 carrots across and lean steaks on the carrots. Add confit cherry tomatoes and finish the sauce with butter and spoon over the steaks.
