Greenlip Yumbah Abalone with Pancetta & Yarra Valley Caviar


Ingredients
- 1 x 7pc Greenlip Abalone, defrosted 12 hrs earlier
- 1lbs pancetta (uncut), or bacon - uncut
- 1 x 100g (3.5oz) Jar Atlantic Salmon Caviar
- Micro greens (optional)
Method
- Defrost and prepare the abalone following the ‘Defrosting Instructions’ and ‘Abalone Preparation’ below. However, do not yet slice the Abalone.
- Heat a nonstick pan until warm. Do NOT use any oil. Then place the pancetta/bacon on the pan and turn down to a low-medium heat. If the meat begins to curl, place a heavy saucepan on top of the meat to hold it down.
- Cook for about 4 -5 minutes each side. Then remove from the pan and allow to cool and become crispy. Keep the remaining fat in the pan.
- Using the same pan, add the abalone (unsliced) fat side down and leave for about 5 minutes until the back side is warm to touch. Then turn over and cook for a further 4 minutes. There should be a slight gold color on the edge.
- Carefully remove from the pan and thinly slice. The center of the abalone should be warm to touch and be a light white opaque color.
- Place neatly back in the shell for presentation, and sprinkle the crispy pancetta over the tope.
- Finally, add a generous amount of Yarra Valley Atlantic Caviar over the top. Sprinkle with micro greens, then serve immediately.
Abalone Preparation
Defrosting Instructions
Only use recommended defrosting methods (see A and B below) on Yumbah frozen abalone. Thawing in HOT, WARM OR AMBIENT WATER OR IN A MICROWAVE may lead to tissue damage (meat structure breakdown). Do not cook the frozen abalone or abalone not completely defrosted.
A) Slow Thaw - Refrigerator Defrosting: (Best for all cooking methods)
Remove frozen abalone from the box and bag. Place frozen abalone with shell down on trays in the refrigerator. Defrost abalone in the refrigerator (set at 2°C to 6°C / 35°F to 43°F) for approximately 24 hours until the abalone is completely defrosted and the abalone’s core temperature is the same temperature as the refrigerator.
B) Fast Thaw - Iced Water Defrosting - (Not suitable for boiling the abalone)
Mix 10 liters (2.64 gallons) cold water, 1kg (2.2046lbs) of ice cubes and 350 grams (~12.34oz) of salt, until the water is < 3°C (37°F) and salt is dissolved. The ratio can be altered for smaller quantities - (10:1:0.350). Remove frozen abalone from plastic bag and place into icy water shell side down in a single layer for 4.5 hours, stir the water regularly. Add extra ice as required to maintain water temperature at less than 3°C (37°F) for full 4.5 hours.
Warning:
Cook and/or consume immediately after defrosting and remove any shell fragments before consumption.
Cooking Advice:
Yumbah abalone has delicate flesh and we suggest cooking at a temperature of 70°C / 148°F. Excessive cooking time and temperature can lead to meat shrinkage, especially when cooking our smaller abalone (less than 71 g / 2.5 oz).
