Note

Serve the Seafood Newburg over toast points, wild rice, saffron rice, or vol-au-vent pastry shells for an elegant presentation.

Use any combination of cooked seafood such as shrimp, crab meat, lobster chunks, or flaked halibut. Ensure seafood is cooked before adding to the sauce.

Do not let the sauce boil after adding the egg yolks to prevent curdling. Keep heat low when warming the seafood.
