Rissole à la Dauphine

This post may contain affiliate links. Please read my disclosure policy.

Escoffier uses rissole as a generic term for starters which includes a filling made of salpicon wrapped in a pastry that can be of different kinds: brioche pastry without sugar, puff pastry or short pastry, usually, fried. Salpicon is a generic term for a mix of different ingredients minced and combined with a sauce.

I took this recipe from Auguste Escoffier famous book 

Rissole à la Dauphine has a mix made with minced meat.

I tried to use a brioche pastry but the dough is very thick and you lose the taste of the fillings.

You can make the brioche with a bread machine.

So I prefer using a lining pastry and the filling made of minced meat flavored with herbs.

I prepare everything the day before and compose and fry them the same day.

I used a filling with mincemeat but you can use any other fillings you would like.

To make a perfectly shaped rissole I use a ravioli mold you can find here my amazon affiliate link.

If you don’t have one, you can use a fork to seal the edges.

This recipe was published in a video proposing 3 Spring Starters for a buffet with step by step organized cooking planning. You can find the video below.

These are the starters featured:

• Gougère Bourguignonne
• Rissole à la Dauphine
• Bouchée à la Rein

I was inspired by my visit to Auguste Escoffier Museum in Villeneuve Loubet and if you want to see the video you can find it HERE

Each Sunday I will publish a video featuring a place to visit, a restaurant or a recipe.

Don’t miss it next week.
