Salmon Red Potato And Asparagus Salad Recipes

SALMON, ASPARAGUS AND NEW POTATO SALAD

Steps:

• Scrub and steam or boil the potatoes until tender, using whatever potatoes you have available, but bearing in mind that the waxy fleshed variety such as fingerlings are particularly good in salads as they do not collapse. Cook the asparagus tips in lightly salted water. Steam, poach or grill the salmon.
• Skin or peel the potatoes, if you wish, and dice or slice them. Mix them with the asparagus and then with the dressing. If using mayonnaise and the potatoes are too hot, this will cause the mayonnaise the split. Grate in the lemon zest, add seasoning and the herbs, and fold into the salad. Spoon the potato and asparagus onto the plate, with a fillet of salmon on top. Whole herbs or baby greens can be used to garnish it, as can edible flowers.

LEMONY SALMON AND ASPARAGUS SALAD

Steps:

• Using a sharp peeler, peel the asparagus into ribbons and add to a large bowl. Add the snow peas, mint, pistachios, feta, lemon juice and zest, 2 tablespoons of the olive oil and a sprinkle of salt and pepper and toss gently. Set aside.
• Heat a large nonstick pan over a medium heat. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil. Season the salmon fillets on both sides with the lemon pepper. Cook the salmon until golden brown, about 3 minutes. Flip the salmon and cook to desired doneness, about another 2 to 4 minutes, depending on thickness of your fillets.
• Serve family style, placing the salad on a platter with the salmon on top. Place the Fried Eggs over the salmon and garnish with balsamic glaze and mint leaves. Or serve individual portions on 4 plates.
• Heat some oil in a nonstick skillet over medium heat. There should be just enough oil to cover the edges of the eggs when they are cracked into the skillet.
• Once the oil is mildly hot, crack in the eggs one at a time. Cook until the eggs begin to turn white, then use a small spoon to carefully spoon the hot oil over only the whites of the eggs (avoiding the yolks). This will help the whites cook slowly so the tops will set but still look pretty. Important: Don't spoon any oil over the yolks yet! Only spoon oil over the whites for now to prevent the eggs from turning cloudy.
• After a minute or two of cooking, once the whites are set and not jiggly or loose, carefully spoon the oil over the yolks. Continue spooning the oil over the eggs until they appear to be done to your liking.
• Remove the eggs from the skillet with a slotted spatula, then drain them briefly on a paper towel before serving.

GRILLED SALMON AND ASPARAGUS SALAD

Steps:

• Sprinkle the salmon on both sides with the canola oil, salt and pepper. Set aside.
• Light a grill with a very clean rack and heat it until very hot.
• Bring 1 cup of water to a boil in a large skillet and add the asparagus in one layer. Cover, bring to a boil and boil gently for about 3 minutes, until most of the water has evaporated. Drain the asparagus and set it aside, uncovered, so it will cool without discoloring.
• Cut the tomatoes crosswise into 1/4-inch slices. Divide the slices among six plates and, leaving space in the center and around the edge of each plate, arrange the tomatoes in a slightly overlapping circular pattern. Divide the onion rings among the plates and arrange them on top of the tomatoes.
• In a bowl, mix together the dressing ingredients and dribble the dressing over the tomatoes and onions on the plates. (This can be done up to 1 hour ahead.)
• When ready to serve, place the salmon on the grill and cook, covered (if your grill has a lid) for about 2 1/2 minutes on each side, or for about 3 minutes, uncovered, on each side. Transfer the salmon to a serving plate and allow it to rest for 5 minutes before carving. (While resting, it will continue to cook in its own residual heat. It should be somewhat rare in the center.)
• With the asparagus pieces, create a border around the tomatoes and onions. Cut the salmon into 1/2-inch slices and arrange them in the center of the plates. Sprinkle with tarragon and serve immediately.

• Heat the broiler with a rack 6 inches from the heat source.
• In a small bowl, mix the soy sauce and mustard until smooth. Add the asparagus to a large sheet pan, toss with the remaining 1 tablespoon of oil, then season well with salt and pepper. Move the asparagus to the sides, and place the salmon skin side down in the center. Season the salmon with salt and pepper, brush the tops and sides with the soy mixture, then toss the asparagus in the rest of the soy mixture. (Use a paper towel to wipe off excess soy on the sheet pan, as it will smoke.)
• Broil until the salmon is opaque with a deep brown crust, about 6 to 8 minutes for medium rare, and 8 to 10 minutes for medium, depending on the strength of your broiler and the thickness of the salmon. (Reduce cooking time by 1 to 2 minutes for thinner fillets.) If it looks like it's browning too quickly or smoking excessively, move to a lower rack to finish cooking. Top the salmon and asparagus with the herb salad or serve on the side with a final round of pepper.

ASPARAGUS FLAN WITH SMOKED SALMON-POTATO SALAD

Steps:

• Blanch only the asparagus tips in a small saucepan of boiling salted water for 2-3 minutes, drain, and shock in ice water to stop the cooking process. Drain again and set aside. Melt the butter in a 2-quart saucepan over medium heat and add the shallots. Sauté for 2 minutes, until softened, then add the chopped asparagus stalks, cream, and milk and simmer gently over low heat for about 10 minutes, or until the asparagus pieces are quite tender. Remove them from the heat and cool about 10 minutes, then pour the mixture into a blender (in batches if necessary) and puree until smooth. Strain the asparagus cream through a fine sieve.
• In a large mixing bowl, whisk the egg yolks and whole egg together until well mixed and just barely frothy. Slowly whisk in the asparagus cream and season with salt, pepper, and nutmeg.
• Preheat the oven to 325°F.
• Butter 4 individual ramekins (with sides about 2 inches high) and place them in a baking dish. Pour the asparagus mixture into the dishes, dividing equally. Carefully fill the baking dish with hot water until it comes halfway up the ramekins. Cover the baking dish with foil and bake in the water bath for about 30 minutes. Watching for steam, carefully open the foil and jiggle the pan to see if the flans are set. They should be firm around the outside but just barely set in the middle, with no bubbles. If they are still liquid in the middle, return to the oven and bake for another 5-10 minutes. Remove the flans from the oven, uncover, and set aside until ready to serve. These flans can be prepared up to 24 hours in advance, refrigerated, and gently reheated in a water bath.
• Put the potatoes in a small pot, cover with cold water, add a sprinkling of salt, and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer until cooked through but still firm, about 5 minutes. Drain and cool.
• Whisk the shallots, vinegar, and olive oil together in a small bowl. In a large bowl, mix the potatoes, celery, onion, croutons, and salmon. Stir in half the dressing, season with salt and pepper, toss, and add more dressing to desired taste. Add the bacon and toss again. To serve, divide the salad among four plates. Place one warm flan on each plate. Place two asparagus tips on top of each flan and add the rest to the salad.
• This recipe will result in a pale green flan. To brighten the color, you can add 1/4 cup blanched, finely chopped spinach or 2 tablespoons fresh parsley to the cream the minute before you remove it from the heat. Proceed to blend the mixture as described above, and the result will be a delightful emerald green flan.
