I am participating in a French Cooking Challenge were several bloggers are cooking through this book and Mimi Thorisson's book In a French Kitchen, weekends over the next 2 1/2 years. We're documenting our journey on our blogs. Mine is at https://joosbornenc.wordpress.com/
Since skate is almost impossible to find in my tiny rural town I used the chart at http://www.reasors.com/foodfav/seafood/chart_sea.php. I found that flounder, which is easily found here, is a good substitution for skate, so I used that. This dish was amazing. I loved the brown butter and capers on the potatoes as well as the fish. Instead of the yukon gold potatoes called for I used some new red potatoes I already had on hand. I will definitely be using this method of poaching fish again.
