Salmon

Since this is a blog about food, I figured it would not be a bad idea to make the first real post about my old friend salmon. I had eight 5 ounce pieces that had all the skin and bones removed. I rubbed them down with lemon juice and EVO and set to work preparing the main players that would send this salmon into flavour country. I sliced up some shallots, minced some garlic and ground up a mixture of fresh basil and rosemary. I salt and peppered the salmon, threw on some paprika and rubbed them down with the rosemary/basil combo. I then tossed on the shallots and garlic and made sure that everyone felt comfortable before their big day. I threw it all into a 400 degree oven for about 12-14 minutes. It was absolutely fantastic, and would recommend it to everyone who reads this blog (so far just myself, and I certainly think it is a fantastic recommendation).  

Got a suggestion? Did something confuse you? Or maybe life has just got you down? If the first two apply to you, then send me an email or leave me a comment (for those of you who are feeling down, seek professional help or gorge yourself on a tub of ice cream, whatever is cheaper). 

Enjoy the weekend,

Davey
