Auntie Ivy Slow Roast Salmon With Special Soy Food

SLOW ROASTED MUSTARD SALMON

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F.
• Place the slices of fennel in the middle of a rimmed baking sheet and drizzle with the olive oil. Place the fillet of salmon skin-side down on top of the bed of fennel and sprinkle it with the salt. Spread the mustard evenly over the top of the salmon and sprinkle with the fennel and coriander seeds. Press gently to help the seeds adhere.
• Roast until a fork inserts easily in the thickest part of the fish and the flesh flakes, approximately 1 hour. Remove the salmon to a platter. Sprinkle with the fennel fronds and drizzle with olive oil.

SLOW ROASTED SALMON WITH POTATOES AND LEMON-HERB VINAIGRETTE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Drizzle canola oil to coat two 8-inch cazuelas or oven-safe dishes. Arrange the potato slices in one even layer on the bottom. Season with salt and pepper and drizzle with more canola oil on top. Bake until the potatoes just begin to brown around the edges and the centers are slightly soft when poked with a fork, 12 to 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, whisk together the mustard and lemon juice in a medium bowl; season with salt and pepper. Continue whisking while drizzling in the olive oil until the sauce is emulsified. Add the parsley and mix to combine.
• Once the potatoes are cooked through, place one salmon fillet in each of the baking dishes and drizzle with canola oil; sprinkle with salt and pepper. Reduce the oven temperature to 250 degrees F and bake to medium doneness, about 15 minutes.
• Spoon the sauce over the top of the salmon and garnish with the thyme, parsley and lemon zest to taste.

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.

PAN-ROASTED SOY-LACQUERED SALMON

Steps:

• In a bowl large enough to accommodate the salmon, mix the sake, soy sauce, mirin, and miso until the miso has dissolved. Add the garlic, ginger, cilantro, and salmon fillets. Cover and marinate for at least 20 minutes and up to 2 hours in the refrigerator.
• Heat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Season the salmon with salt and pepper on both sides. Heat the oil in an ovenproof nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. When the oil is hot, add the salmon skin side down. Put the pan into the oven and roast until the salmon is cooked medium-rare, about 12 to 15 minutes. Serve garnished with cilantro leaves and lime wedges.

AUNTIE IVY: SLOW ROAST SALMON WITH SPECIAL SOY.

Steps:

• Place your piece of salmon fillet on a foil lined tray. Skin side down. A sprinkling of salt and pepper. Bake in a pre-heated 250F oven for 18-20 minutes. Eat with ivy's soy. Leftovers ate great cold. You can vary the sauce. A quick one would be mixing light mayo with Grey poupon and then thinning it out with a small amount of milk. To enhance the look, finely chopped chives. Because of the low temperature, I actually spray my Pyrex pie dish with some PAM and then place it directly on it. The skin of the salmon acts as an added buffer. With this prep, I do not eat the skin as it will be soft. Since I don't eat the skin, using foil in this instant is OK. for larger pieces. Due to the low temperature used, it would be helpful to take the salmon out of the fridge at least half hour before.
