Treat Your Dad to a Culinary Treat with Old Pulteney Catcher’s Delight

By Old Pulteney

Let’s face it, sometimes Dads are hard to spoil. This Father’s Day, why not treat him to a delicious whisky-infused seafood dish? We’ve created a culinary delight infused with Old Pulteney Harbour – the perfect addition to your Father’s Day celebrations.

Being distilled and matured by the sea on the northerly shores of Scotland in Wick, Old Pulteney’s flavour is unlike other single malt Scotch whiskies. Its coastal character means that pairing Old Pulteney with the right delicacy can unlock new realms of deliciousness hiding within every bite.

So, why not honour the father figure in your life with the delicious Catcher’s Delight? A tantalising recipe featuring fresh cod atop a rich and velvety, parsley purée with a hint of Old Pulteney Harbour that pairs perfectly with a dram of Old Pulteney whisky.

 

Ingredients

• 200 grams of fresh cod
• 3 tbsp cannellini beans
• 1 tbsp sea salt
• 1 tbsp parsley oil
• 1 tbsp Old Pulteney Harbour
• 1 garlic clove
• 1 onion
• 1 bay leaf

 

Method

Preparing the sauce

Sauté the garlic and onion until softened, add the beans, water, and whisky – simmer until warmed through and slightly thickened. Take off the heat and use a food processor to puree until perfectly smooth.

Preparing the cod

Pat your fish dry and season on both sides with salt and pepper. In a large deep skillet, heat your olive oil, bay leaf and splash of water on medium flame. Add the fish to the pan and bring the sauce to a simmer on low heat. Cover the pan and cook on low for about 5 minutes. Fish should flake off easily.

To serve

Add to a deep plate, with the cannellini and whisky sauce at the bottom then add the fish and finish with a drizzle of parsley oil.

Serve with a dram of Old Pulteney Harbour and enjoy!
