Shrimp Farce
In Top Chef ™ World All Stars, when elevating the traditional British Fish pie, Chef Buddha took cod and wrapped it in a 'shrimp farce'. A 'farce' is a mousse made from meat or fish trimmings, blended with cream, eggs and seasoning. It is a beautiful way to add color or flavor to another dish, and Chef Buddha uses it to bond vegetables (in this case, cucumber) to fish by using a protein farce as the 'glue'.

About Top Chef ™
Top Chef ™ is an American reality competition television series which has run since March 2006. The show features professional chefs competing against each other in culinary challenges.
The Top Chef ™ chef-contestants are judged by a counsel of exemplary, world-renowned professional chefs and famous names from the food and wine industry.
The contestants are superb, professional chefs with a huge array of global food skills.
The show is progressive, eliminating one or two chefs each week. Each episode follows a consistent theme with (usually) a Quickfire challenge (short and fun) followed by a more difficult "Elimination Challenge" that is much more intense. The Top Chef ™ Judges Table is where the winners and losers are determined each week.
