Tales of the Dinner Belle

I think one of the reasons I enjoy cooking is it’s always an evolving, growing and learning experience. There are dishes I have cooked for thirty years that I still find ways to make better and there are others that I realize I shouldn’t change even a pinch.

One of my most successful creations has been what I call my sweet and spicy salmon. This dish is flavorful, tender and so easy. It is a recipe I have tweaked for years, but this final version is the one I’m sticking with. Serve it with a simple side salad and bread and that is all you need for a meal that is perfect for a special occasion. The only trick to this dish is to not overcook it. Salmon should be moist and flake with a fork.
