Fish
THE SAFFRON FISH ONLY SWIMS IN CALM WATERS
Never underestimate the presentation of a dish. Especially not with a critical younger audience. Some playfulness makes a huge difference. Fish is the best fast-food, and there are two important rules that you should always follow: Do not cook it too long, and use plenty of salt.
– What is for dinner?
– Fish?
– Oh no!
– Oven-baked cod
– I do not eat cod!
– What about saffron-bun fish?
– Dibs on cooking it!
SALMON SOUP WITH SAFFRON
Servings: 4
Time: 20 minutes
2 tbsp olive oil (30 mL)
1 onion, chopped
2 cloves of garlic, chopped
1 fennel, tended, chopped
2-4 carrots, sliced
3 tbsp fish stock (45 mL)
1 can whole tomatoes (14 oz)
3 cups water (700 mL)
¾ cup white wine (200 mL)
¾ cup cream (200 mL)
1 pinch saffron (0.5 mL)
1 ½ tsp salt (4 g)
½ tsp black pepper (1 g)
17 oz. salmon filet cut into cubes (500 g)
DILL CREAM
¾ cup créme fraiche (200 mL)
½ cup dill, chopped (100 g)
1 lemon, grated zest
salt and pepper
Heat oil in a pot and fry onion, fennel, and carrot for a few minutes without bringing color to them. Add stock, tomatoes, water, wine, and cream. Let it boil for 5-7 minutes. Add saffron, salt, pepper, and salmon. Then let the soup sit for a few minutes until the salmon is done. Mix the ingredients for the dill cream and serve with the soup.
With a meat thermometer, there is no doubt about it—the salmon is perfect at 125° F.
SALMON SATISFACTION
Satisfaction because you can flavor it with everything, from feta cheese to ginger. Satisfaction because it takes care of itself in the oven. Satisfaction because it turns out absolutely delicious.
Vary the taste and put in red pesto, green pesto with extra basil, tapenade feta cheese, cantadou with horseradish and grated lemon peel, brie, wrap it in bacon, or put it in barbecue spices. Do not forget to use enough salt and pepper. Put it in the oven at 350°F for 12-13 minutes and out comes the best luxury dinner.
A family that is not scared of spicy flavors can cook its salmon with chili, ginger, and lime.
SALMON WITH GINGER, CHILI, AND LIME
Servings: 6-10
Preheat oven to 350°F
Time: 10 minutes prep, 20-25 minutes cooking
25 oz. pak choi, coarsely chopped (700 g)
5 scallions, chopped
1 piece of salmon (35-53 oz/1-1 ½ kg)
3 tbsp honey (45 mL)
1 tbsp fresh ginger, grated (1 g)
1 chili without seeds, chopped
½ lime, juice
½ lime in thin slices
⅓ cup sesame seeds (50 g)
Put the pak choi and scallions in a spacious oven dish. Cut the skin from the salmon and place the fish on the greens. Sprinkle salt on the fish and greens. Mix honey, ginger, chili, and lime juice and brush it onto the fish. Put the slices of lime on the salmon and sprinkle sesame seeds on it. Bake in the middle of the oven until the thickest part of the salmon has an inner temperature of 125°F, about 20-25 minutes.
Put the fish in the fridge in the morning so it is perfectly defrosted when it is time for dinner.
ALMOND CRUSTED POLLACK
Servings: 5
Preheat oven to 350°F
Time: 10 minutes prep, 15-20 minutes in the oven
26 oz. pollack filet (750 g)
salt and black pepper
2 cups parsley, chopped (300 g)
1 ⅓ cups almonds, chopped (200 g)
3 ½ oz. butter, room temperature (100 g)
1 lemon, grated peel and juice
9 oz. broccoli florets (250 g)
26 oz. cauliflower florets (750 g)
salt
melted butter
Place the pollack in a greased oven dish. Use plenty of salt and pepper. Mix together parsley, almonds, butter, and lemon. Spread the mixture on the fish. Bake in the middle of the oven until the thickest part of the pollack has an inner temperature of 135°F, about 15-20 minutes.
Boil broccoli and cauliflower in salted water. Serve the greens with the pollack and melted butter.
ICE-COLD FRIENDS
Sometimes a frozen package of fish is all you need to strike back against a dinner panic. Defrost, put on a crust filled with rich flavors, and enjoy.
MORE BREAD
Seeds, coconut, taco shells, cheese, or cornflake crumbs. Crunchy is tasty, and homemade fish sticks will surely charm the most stubborn fish opposer. How to do it? See next page!
Tasty with the sticks: stir-fried vegetables, noodles, mashed potatoes, and yogurt sauce.
BREADED FISH
Servings: 4
Time: 20 minutes
Bread fish with sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, black or white sesame seeds, coconut flakes, parmesan, oats, fresh or dried herbs, almond, melon seeds, cornflakes, and grated lemon
