Honey and Rum-Glazed Salmon

By

I tested a few rum recipes for this month's Fantastical Food Fight hosted by Sarah of Fantastical Sharing of Recipes. For more information about the event, click here. 


The recipe I picked will post later tonight, but I wanted to share this one as a bonus. It was a tasty dinner albeit a bit sweet for our palates. I'll have to play with it to get it a bit more savory. But it was good.


Ingredients
  • 3 T raw, unfiltered honey
  • 3 T rum
  • 2 T gluten-free soy sauce or tamari
  • 1 T peeled fresh ginger, grated
  • 1 T freshly squeezed lime juice 
  • 3 garlic cloves, peeled and pressed
  • 1/4 t freshly ground black pepper 
  • 1 pound wild caught salmon filet
  • Also needed: grill or grill pan, oil for the grill



Procedure
Whisk together first 7 ingredients in a large mixing bowl. Place salmon in a shallow dish with a lid. Pour marinade over the fish. Cover and refrigerate for at least an hour. Turn the fish at least twice during the hour.

Heat a grill or grill pan, coating the pan with oil. Place the fish on the grill, skin-side down. Cook until the fish is opaque a little more than halfway up. For a 1" thick filet, it'll take about 4 minutes. Flip and cook for an additional 3 minutes.

Remove from heat and let rest for a few minutes before serving.


I served it with a few different salads, including a fresh slaw, a raw beet salad, and a potato salad.

    Perhaps had it not marinated but was only glazed it wouldn't have been so sweet? It sounds like it would be amazing.

Hot Chocolate Agasajo-Style {Spice It Up!}

By
photo by D For my Spice It Up! kiddos this week, I was looking for an exotic drink to serve while we learned about saffron. I found a recipe from food historian Maricel Presilla that mimicked traditional Spanish hot chocolate from the 17th century where it was served at lavish receptions called agasajos . When I teach, I don't always get to shoot photos. Thankfully, D grabbed my camera and snapped a few. Ingredients serves 14-16 1 gallon organic whole milk 3 T dried rosebuds - or 2 t rosewater 2 t saffron threads, lightly crushed 3 T ground cinnamon 3 whole tepin chiles, crushed 2 vanilla beans, split lengthwise 1 C organic granulated sugar 1 lb. bittersweet chocolate Procedure In a large soup pot that can hold a gallon plus, combine milk, dried rosebuds (or rosewater, if you are using that), saffron threads, ground cinnamon, chiles, vanilla beans, and sugar and warm over medium heat till it steams. Whisk to dissolve sugar, then lower heat an...

Frozen Art Gourmet Ice Cream

By
As we headed inland from the coast, I cringed as the temperature gauge in the car for outside temp climbed into the triple digits. Ugh. I'm a rather wimpy central coastal Californian who begins to wilt when it's 70 degrees outside. Thank goodness for air conditioning and a planned ice cream stop. When I parked the car outside Frozen Art Gourmet Ice Cream in Santa Rosa, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. We knew that we still had to get to the campsite...and set up our tents in the heat. But we were going to enjoy the cool, sweet treats from Frozen Art first! Michoacana ice creameries are the equivalent of Starbucks in Mexico; they're ubiquitous. Purists, however, claim that operating a true Michoacana ice cream shop require ties to Tocumbo. It's estimated that almost ninety percent of the Tocumban population is currently employed in the ice cream business from making ice cream itself to making equipment. But the real art of Tocumban ice creams: imaginat...
