Chive

In Chinese culture, noodles symbolize longevity and are often served at New Year celebrations and traditionally left very long.

Although the morels add a woodsy intensity to the flavor of the consommé, they are not essential. You can substitute other dried exotic mushrooms or eliminate them altogether and simply float a thin slice of fresh white mushroom on the soup right before covering the bowl with the pastry.

This recipe is an accompaniment for Roast Prime Rib with Madeira Sauce and horseradish Sauce.

Use this dressing on crisp lettuce or omit the buttermilk and serve it as a dip with crudités.
