papillote
Steaming food pouch
Papillote refers to a method of cooking food—typically fish or vegetables—wrapped in parchment paper or foil, which steams in its own juices when heated.
The technique, borrowed from French cuisine, creates a sealed packet that puffs up dramatically in the oven.
We had salmon en papillote with herbs and lemon.
Papillote also names the decorative paper frills placed on the ends of lamb chops or poultry legs for presentation.
