{Gluten-Free} Salmon, Prawn, and Zucchini Pasta #fishfridayfoodies


It's time for Fish Friday Foodies' October event. We are a group of seafood-loving bloggers, rallied by Wendy of A Day in the Life on the Farm, to share fish and seafood recipes on the third Friday of the month. This is, easily, my favorite recipe sharing event of the month. I always come away with a list of recipes that I just have to try!

This month, Claire of Sprinkles and Sprouts is hosting. She asked us to toss some fish or seafood into pasta and share it with you all. 

So, after three years of being gluten-free - he doesn't have Celiac disease or any other medical condition that requires him to be gluten-free - Jake has decided he will ease back into gluten, but he does want to focus more on consuming lower carbs. And, after three years, of adapting recipes or, sometimes, making two different dishes for dinner, I am elated. But I still have a cupboard full of gluten-free pasta!

So, I'm sharing this recipe with gluten-free pasta, locally-caught wild salmon, prawns, and the last of the summer squash. It's a quick, easy dinner. But, first, here's the #FishFridayFoodies collective pasta bowl...




Salmon, Prawn, and Zucchini Sauce

Ingredients
  • 1/4 C olive oil + more for serving
  • 1/2 C diced white onion
  • 2 C diced zucchini and/or summer squash
  • 2 T water
  • 1/2 pound salmon (deboned and cut into large cubes)
  • 1/2 pound prawns (if you can, I prefer wild - not farmed - and local seafood)
  • 1/4 C wine (I used a Rosé)
  • sea salt
  • Also needed cooked pasta (I used gluten-free) and grated cheese for serving


Procedure
Peel prawns, devein, and chop into bite-size pieces.


Heat olive oil in a large, flat-bottom pan. Add onion and cook until softened and translucent, approximately 3 to 4 minutes. Stir in the zucchini and add the water. Cover and cook until the zucchini is tender, approximately 5 minutes.

Add in the prawns  and salmon. Pour in the wine. Simmer until the seafood is pink and opaque. Season to taste with salt.

To serve, toss in the cooked pasta. Add a splash of olive and toss until well-coated and glossy. Scoop into individual serving bowls and sprinkle with grated cheese.

  6. Wow ! Great to know that Jake is on gluten free diet for last 3 years, we have just started avoiding gluten food as far as possible but not completely off gluten. This is very healthy yet delicious seafood pasta. Here it's difficult to get gluten free pasta.

Hot Chocolate Agasajo-Style {Spice It Up!}

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

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...
