Oh, y'all, I feel sorry for anyone not eating dinner at my house tonight. And I feel sorry for anyone whose reaction to fish is to scrunch up their face and go "yuck." Because OMG.

Fresh Copper River sockeye salmon, glazed with an equal mix of Dijon mustard and blue agave syrup, and a pinch of grated lemon peel, grilled until the skin was crisp and served with fresh green beans and baby cuke.

The plate, it was licked.


I don't always WANT to cook. But I am always glad I know HOW to cook.

Hmm... I saw that salmon was on sale this week at the grocery....

not everyone but a lot of people only think they don't like fish. Its that they don't like bad fish. Their first exposure is cafeteria fish-sticks or breaded over cooked frozen nonsense. There is a big difference

My ex-husband didn't even want me to cook fish in the house (even if he had a steak for dinner), he hated ocean-based food so much.... the taste, the smell, etc. Why? He "didn't like it," for whatever reason.

My reaction to fishy things is usually to ::scrunches face::, but it has nothing to do with my opinion of fish. I used to like good fish, then my body decided anything ocean or river based was anathema. My reaction has everything to do with the intolerance and nothing to do with the fish.

That really does sound amazing.

Over here last night it was butter-baked plaice, with geode courgette.

(The big problem with these courgettes is half of one is actually enough for four. But they're delicious.)

Yes, fish, nice.

Down cats!

That sounds delicious. The problem is that Agave syrup is hard to find in Sweden. But I'll look for it.

I suppose you could use honey, but the texture's all different (and watering down the honey to get the right consistency is...complicated, to not lose the sweetness).

You had this Pacific Northwest girl (who now lives in the other Washington) at Copper River.

I want to eat at your place.
