Keep a handful of unpeeled gray shrimp aside.
Peel the rest and save the waste. Make it a
shrimp stock. Cook peeled floury potatoes in
that stock.
Drain the potatoes and crush them with a
pestle. Dilute with buttermilk, egg yolks and
butter to a creamy stoemp.
Save a few sprigs of fresh chervil for garnish
and blanch the rest in buttermilk for half a
minute. Mash briefly with a hand mixer. Strain
the preparation, but keep the moisture.
Mix the mashed chervil with the potato stoemp.
Season with salt, pepper and nutmeg.
Soak a few leaves of gelatin. Heat the chervil
sieve and stir in the soaked gelatin. Gently
pour a mirror of moisture onto the plates and
refrigerate to stiffen.
Steam a handful of samphire for three minutes.
Rinse under cold water. Boil three mussels per
plate in a little water diluted with white wine. Let
them cool in their shell.

Remove the crayfish from their armor. If you do
this in advance, you can use the waste
together with that of the shrimp to make the
stock.
Put the stoemp in individual glass bowls that
you have buttered. Place the jars in a hot oven
for 15 minutes or heat them up in the
microwave.
On the dinner plate. Take the plates out of the
refrigerator. Dress with samphire, mussels,
crayfish, unpeeled shrimps and sprigs of fresh
dill. Invert the jars stoemp on the plates.
Finish with a generous amount of peeled
shrimp mixed with fresh chervil.
You can serve with a hollandaise sauce, but
you don't have to.
