Name: Fish with Garlic Wine Cheese Date: 06/28/2004 Servings: 2-4 Batches: 1 Cost: $23.00 Cost note: Cost assumes wine was less than $5.00 Meal: Main Dish Course: Dinner Feel: Light Food Ingredients: 1 lb orange ruffy 2 large shallots 6 oz soft Garlic cheese (Alouette cheese spread Garlic and Herb) 1 cup white wine 3 handfuls of Spring Mix Salad 8 table spoons Blue Cheese Dressing (See notes) Preparation: Finely chop Shallots and saute with wine in skillet and bring it to a boil until there is about a 1/4 cup of wine left. Remove from heat and mix in cheese until soft and creamy. Set aside in serving bowl. Coat a clean skillet with olive oil. Very lightly salt and pepper (fresh cracked only) fish and cook fish in skillet (about 4 minutes per side). Put the spring mix on serving plates and throw the blue cheese on it. Transfer fish to serving plates and ring the dinner bell. If people are smart they will know that the cheese sauce goes on the fish. Serve with the rest of the wine. History: The cheese sauce is Creamy White Wine and Garlic Sauce sauce from Cooking With Three Ingredients (1996 Quill/Harper Collins) by Andrew Schloss. Notes: As for the Salad, the cheese sauce also works nicely as a salad dressing. Never, ever, use iceberg lettuce. If you have ever read any book on raising rodents like hamsters, or rabbits you will learn that the first rule is "DO NOT FEED THEM ICEBERG". Iceberg is evil. It takes more from the body than it gives. Seriously. It is all water with no nutritional value and if you were to depend on it for survival you will die faster than if you just drank water by its self. Blue cheese: only by the good stuff. The fewer the ingredients the better. If you can get organic then buy that. There is no comparison between Kraft Blue cheese and the real thing. Huge chunks of blue cheese and massive amounts of flavor. You will use less of it than if you pick a cheap brand that is all soybean and canola oil. You pay for what you get here. You can cheat on some things but not on Blue Cheese. Variants: If I do this one over again (and I will) I will throw some garlic in with the shallots.

Sorry but your lack of context[0] is leaving me with no way of knowing what issues Sheldon (is he still around?) would have with my post. I have [censored] him off before though so nothing new there. But what spacifically would he take issue with? Iceberg?

Sheldon decries that one NEVER prepares ANY fish with cheese.
FWIW
(I personally like McDonald's Fish sandwiches, which have cheese, if 'on the road' & gotta eat & run). YMMV

No fish with cheese? How can one live like that? Well I think we see how that has effected Sheldon. My Italian mother, who has cooked Italian seafood dishes her whole life, would have to throw out some of her Sicilian recipes if that were the case.
He probably thinks that parmesan should only be used on dishes served with tomato based sauces. And anyone who has had parmesan crusted fried shrimp with an alfredo dipping sauce knows how nice that makes life.

Or a macadamia nut parmesan crusted fish, sauteed.

Or cream cheese with salmon on a bagel. To me this is like a "there are no beans in chili" argument. So many people do it and have it come out better than it would have without the "thou shalt not" rules of cooking that I just can't see why people get so up in arms.
I see people get more passionate about chili w/o beans then they do about men being apes. Not to imply that a lot of Texans don't understand biology. I would never due that.... ..
The point is there are bigger fights than chili or fish and cheese.
