Hickory-Smoked Kokanee on Parmesan Crisps

Last week Jake was talking to his cousin who lives in Coeur d'Alene, Idaho. I am always envious of Isaac's posts - about hunting elk and fishing - so I made some smarty pants comment about whether any of his loot was shippable. He asked for our address. And, lo and behold, look what came in the mail. Well, look what he had in his kitchen (I hijacked some of his FB posts, but did give photo credit!); we got a bag that I tried to hide till I could create something fabulous.

Well, my plans were foiled when my boys got home before me, broke into the bag, and feasted. They did leave me half of the fish, thinking that they would get in trouble if I didn't get to try any. You got that right, boys!!

I whipped up some parmesan crisps and topped them with the hickory-smoked Kokanee for an evening snack as I was editing a friend's manuscript.

Ingredients

parmesan, shredded or shaved
smoked fish
freshly ground pepper
fresh dill sprigs

Procedure

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Spoon a heaping tablespoon of parmesan cheese onto a parchment lined baking sheet and lightly pat down. Repeat, spacing the spoonfuls about a 1/2 inch apart.

Bake for 3 to 5 minutes or until golden and crisp. Cool.

To serve: top crisps with smoked fish. Garnish with freshly ground pepper and chopped dill.

Host Cindy of Grape Experiences wrote: "Burgundy, or Bourgogne, is known for its wines of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir... as well as Aligote, Gamay, Sauvignon, César, Pinot Beurot, Sacy, Melon in lesser quantities. Many of the well-known wines are quite expensive, but there are plenty of values to be found." Read her invitation here.

You're Invited: Take a (Virtual) Hawaiian Holiday with #FoodNFlix

Fall Break, Oahu, October 2017 For June, I am hosting Food'N'Flix , the movie-watching, food-making group rallied by Heather of All Roads Lead to the Kitchen . This week, my older son was supposed to graduate from high school and we were supposed to leave on a family vacation to the Big Island. But, as enter our eleventh week of being sheltered in place to flatten the curve of the coronavirus, all of our summer plans were canceled, including this long-planned graduation trip to Hawaii. Boo. I understand the need to self-isolate. And we are abiding by the social distancing guidelines put in place by our state. But, boo, nonetheless. Oahu, October 2017 So for this month's Food'N'Flix, I chose to open up the field and let all of the food bloggers take a (virtual) Hawaiian holiday.
