Recipe: Grilled Teriyaki Salmon Bites

These little hors d’oeuvre bites are exquisite hot or cold, and are an easy dish to make when people come over. They can be marinated ahead and finished just before service, or served cold. The addition of ginger gives the teriyaki glaze an additional kick and the honey adds a sweetness which makes it easier to caramelize.

Recipe: Pistachio Crusted Salmon with Bailey's Irish Cream Sauce

Why not celebrate St. Patrick’s Day with a touch of the Irish, as in this cream sauce made with Bailey’s. The cabbage slaw with malt vinegar is a refreshing change from the limpid cabbage often served on this holiday, and the pistachio crust gives a nice touch of green to the pink and flaky salmon.

Recipe: Hoi Polloi Salmon

This gorgeous dish comes to us courtesy of Bun Lai, owner of Miya Sushi in New Haven, CT. Chef Lai says, “I wanted to create a salmon dish that the average person afraid of raw fish would like - a salmon dish for the masses -therefore called hoi polloi salmon. I like to see this dish as sashimi with a Mexican-Italian twist because Mexicans are closely related to the Japanese - they were only separated from one another towards the end of the last Ice Age!”

Recipe: Eggs with Caviar and Salmon Rosettes

This is an elegant variation on deviled eggs. Caviar is frequently paired with eggs, salmon, and cream. In this simple party hors d’oeuvre, we pair them all (what the heck, you only live once, right?). You can alternate the eggs with small potatoes for a variation.

Recipe: Moroccan Spiced Smoked Salmon

This Moroccan-inspired version of a traditional smoked salmon steak is a treat for the palate; the key ingredient is a blend of spices called Ras el Hanout or “head of store” – this spice blend is considered the best a merchant has to offer to customers. It is a combination of over 30 different herbs and can include Grains of Paradise, lavender, turmeric, ajawan seeds, kalajeera, ginger, galangal, oris root, rose buds, monk's pepper, cinnamon and more! (Ahem, the blend is claimed to have aphrodisiac properties.) Used mostly during cold seasons by locals, it is used typically in Moroccan stews called tagines.

Recipe: Salmon with Lemon-Thyme Persillade and Spiced Parsley Mayonnaise

Persillade is a classic French preparation using parsley and garlic. It is often used as a last-minute finish to dishes, but can also be combined with breadcrumbs to form a crust for lamb, meat or fish. In this simple version, we brighten up the taste with thyme and lemon zest to match the richness of the salmon, and a touch of Parmesan cheese for a nutty aroma.

Recipe: Smoked Salmon and Caviar "Pizza"

This is a simple hors d’oeuvre dish or starter course. Smoked salmon and caviar is a classical pairing, here made more relaxing and fun served on a pizza crust. You can use any garnish that you like. We are partial to champagne onions, since they are sweet and easy to make.

The Main Ingredient - Salmon: In the Pink

The cultures of the Coastal Northwest of North America have long been tied to salmon. The natives of the Pacific Northwest have ceremonies to welcome the return of spawning salmon. In Japan, natives of the northern coast even taught their dogs to catch salmon!

Salmon has become one of the most popular fish due to its high protein and low fat levels, and also because it has relatively high levels of antioxidant rich Omega-3 fatty acids. Because of the positive effects observed from Omega-3 acids, many claim that eating more salmon is good for the skin, and some even claim it as a treatment for acne. (read more)

Recipe: Salmon Fettucini with Creamy Lemon Vinaigrette

Salmon is a versatile, mild-tasting fish that adapts well to a variety of flavor combinations. This dish is a luscious way to serve pasta for a special evening; the lemony vinaigrette serves as a tangy counterpoint to the buttery smoothness of the salmon. The salmon and vinaigrette can also be served atop greens for a light salad.
