SLOW ROASTED SALMON AND POTATOES RECIPE

Steps:

• If you're making the potatoes, start by heating the oven to 450 degrees F. If not, skip to step 5.
• Put the halved potatoes in a large mixing bowl. Season with kosher salt, black pepper, 1 teaspoon fresh thyme and 1 teaspoon dry rosemary. Add 2 teaspoons minced garlic and 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil. Toss to make sure the potatoes are well coated.
• Arrange the potatoes, cut side down, on a sheetpan or baking dish. Roast in the heated oven for about 25 minutes.
• Remove the potatoes from the oven and push the potatoes to one side of your pan to make room for the salmon.
• Turn the oven heat down to 250 degrees F. Wait for the heat to lower to this point.
• Brush the bottom of the sheet pan where you made room for the salmon with a bit of extra virgin olive oil. Season the salmon with kosher salt on both sides and put it in the pan next to the potatoes.
• Drizzle about 3 to 4 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil over the salmon fillet. Spread the remaining fresh garlic on top (I use the back of a spoon to spread the garlic evenly all over the fish fillet). Sprinkle the remaining rosemary and fresh thyme.
• Roast the salmon in the 250 degree F heated oven for 15-18 minutes for medium rare, or up to 25 minutes for medium, depending on thickness of fish (insert a fork in the thickest part of the salmon, it should meet no resistance and should flake easily). To be sure, insert an instant read thermometer in the thickest part of the fish, it is ready when the internal temperature registers 125 degrees F for a medium-cooked salmon.
• Squeeze some fresh lemon juice on top of the salmon. Serve immediately.

ROASTED SALMON WITH BUTTER

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 475 degrees. Place butter on a rimmed baking sheet and season with salt and pepper. Place sheet in oven until butter melts, about 1 minute.
• Carefully remove sheet from oven and place salmon on top of butter, skin side down; season with salt and pepper. Return sheet to oven.
• Roast until salmon is just cooked through, 8 to 12 minutes, checking frequently. It will flake easily when done. Sprinkle with parsley and serve.

SALT-ROASTED SALMON TOSTADA

Steps:

• Preheat an oven to 500 degrees F.
• In a frying pan, heat 2 inches of oil to 360 degrees F.
• Fry tortillas, 1 at a time, until crispy, about 2 minutes(do not fold tortilla). Drain on paper towels and set aside.
• In a baking dish that will hold the salmon in 1 layer, spread half of the salt over the bottom. Arrange salmon on top of salt then cover with remaining salt. Bake for about 8 minutes. The salmon should be pink and moist in the center; insert a knife tip through salt and into a piece of fish to check. Remove salmon from oven and allow to cool slightly. Lift off and remove salt crust with a spatula. Break up salmon with your fingers and place in a bowl; drizzle with a little bit of the vinaigrette. If desired, add cilantro leaves.
• Place a crisp tortilla on each plate. Top with a ladleful of black beans then with a layer of salmon. In a bowl, lightly dress the arugula with remaining cumin vinaigrette. Add sesame seeds and toss well. Place a small mound of greens on each tostada and sprinkle with goat cheese. Place a lime wedge alongside and drizzle with lime-cumin creme fraiche. Serve.
• Combine vinegar, lime juice, cumin, salt, and pepper in a bowl, and mix well. Whisk in the oil until emulsified. Set aside until ready to use.;
• In a large pot, bring black beans to boil in water to cover by 2 inches. Add half the onion, the celery and the bay leaf. Reduce heat and simmer until beans are tender, 1 1/2 to 2 hours. Strain and reserve liquid.
• In same pot, heat olive oil and add bell pepper, remaining onion, garlic, green onions, basil, cilantro, soy sauce, lemon juice, cumin, cardamom, salt, and pepper. When vegetables are tender, add the beans and the reserved cooking liquid and simmer until reduced by half. Beans can be prepared up to 2 days ahead and refrigerated. To use, ladle out amount desired and heat until warmed through.
• Mix together in a small bowl. Use immediately.

SALT-ROASTED SALMON

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Heat 1 T oil in a ovenproof skillet (I use cast iron) until it just shimmers (do not let it smoke). Add the salmon skin side down and cook until the skin begins to crisp, about 2-3 minutes.
• Mound the salt around and over each piece, trying to get it to really make a cohesive crust on each one (will make removal easier later).
• Roast in oven for 5 minutes per inch of thickness. Remove the salmon from the oven and let sit for 2 minutes in the crust. Carefully brush away the salt (the top will look slightly rare but the side will be cooked). Transfer to a clean work surface and finish removing salt with a pastry brush.
• Season with a drizzle of extra-virgin olive oil, fresh ground black pepper, and serve with a little lemon.
• The salmon will seem a little dry but will not be overcooked. This really brings out the flavor of the salmon.
