Aumônières of Saint Jacques and Truffles
(Joël Roy M.O.F 1979, Restaurant Le Prieuré)

Ingredients:
16 scallop shell nuts
40g of truffles
Crêpe batter
Sauce:
2dl of fish bouillon
100g of butter
10g of truffles
For 4 people:

This dish, absolutely delicious, can easily be prepared in-group. A lot of preparation must be done at the last minute, and everything must remain warm.
Slice the truffles finely. Cut the scallop nuts in two, lengthwise. Add salt and pepper. Warm the fish bouillon. Add 100g of butter and a few slices of truffle.
Mix to obtain a truffle butter. Poach the halves scallop nuts in this butter for 2 minutes. Cook in a saucepan 2 thin pancakes per person. Blanch the spinach leaves for 1 minute and warm up the plates.
Set out 4 halves scallop nuts and a few truffle slices on each crêpe. Close the crêpes like an aumônière and knit the crêpe with a leave of chive.
Dispose on each plate three spinach leaves. Place two aumônieres on the leaves. With a spoon, introduce in each aumônieres some truffle butter. Place the rest of the butter and some chervil around the crêpes.
