Cheese Tortellini with Shrimp


 You can find this recipe at Cape May Cafe Beach Club at Disney. I haven't had the pleasure of eating at that restaurant but this sounds delicious!


What you'll need:

1 pound Shrimp, chopped

2 pounds Cheese Tortellini

3 cups Seafood Béchamel Sauce

3 cups Brandy Tomato mix

1 Tablespoon Fresh Chives, small chop

To taste Salt and Pepper


Method of Preparation:


To the Béchamel Sauce, add Brandy Tomato Mix, keep warm.


Drop Tortellini in Pasta Pot


Sauté shrimp until hot.


Add heated Tortellini and Béchamel Brandy sauce to Shrimp and heat until 165°f.


Pour into an oval pan and garnish with fresh chopped chives.


Seafood Bechamel Sauce:

¾ cup Flour

¾ cup Butter

1 cup Heavy Cream

1 cup Milk

1 cup Clam juice

To taste Salt

To taste White Pepper


Method of Preparation:


Melt the butter in the kettle and add flour.


Mix thoroughly and cook for 5 minutes. Do not let it burn or brown!


Whisk in the cream, milk, and clam juice and allow to cook 15 minutes or until thickened.


Simmer for 10 minutes.


Be sure to strain.


Cool.


Season at table


Lobster Tomato Base (Brandy Tomato Mix)


Ingredients:

1 container, 16 ounces, Lobster Base

2 pounds Tomato Paste

64 ounces Brandy

This makes 1 gallon (you definitely don't need to make that much)


Method of Preparation:

Incorporate all ingredients with a whip or burre mixer.


This is a very indepth recipe, I would need to play around with the ingredients to have the right amount and I would personally serve on a special occasion not just for any dinner.

So when I found this DIY project I just had to share!   DIY Cheesecloth Ghosts     You can find styrofoam mannequin heads at wig shots. They normally can stand on their necks but for this project you need to suspend them to let the cloth flow freely. Materials: Cheesecloth Styrofoam mannequin heads Sponge brush Watered-down glue or fabric stiffener Screw eyes Monofilament Removable adhesive hooks (like command brand or painters tape).     Steps: Apply a layer of cheesecloth to the head, then generously brush over head and face with glue.
