Beet And Dill Roasted Wild Salmon Food

BEET-AND-DILL-ROASTED WILD SALMON

Steps:

• Combine beet, dill, horseradish, zest, and 2 tablespoons oil in a bowl. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment. Season both sides of salmon generously with salt and pepper; transfer to sheet. Spread beet mixture on top. Let stand 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, preheat oven to 425 degrees. Toss potatoes with remaining 2 tablespoons oil; season generously with salt and pepper. Shingle potatoes in a 9-by-13-inch baking dish, in a single layer. Bake until tender, about 35 minutes; remove from oven.
• Remove beet mixture from top of salmon with a spoon; spread over center of potatoes. Top beet mixture with fish (you may need to tuck part of tail end under fish to fit in pan), drizzle with oil, and bake until salmon is medium-rare, 10 to 12 minutes. Squeeze with lemon, garnish with dill fronds, and serve.

SALMON WITH DILL

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Rinse salmon, and arrange in a 9x13 inch baking dish. Sprinkle salt, pepper, onion powder, and dill over the fish. Place pieces of butter evenly over the fish.
• Bake in preheated oven for 20 to 25 minutes. Salmon is done when it flakes easily with a fork.

SALMON WITH LEMON AND DILL

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a medium baking dish.
• Place salmon in the baking dish. Mix the butter and lemon juice in a small bowl, and drizzle over the salmon. Season with dill, garlic powder, sea salt, and pepper.
• Bake 25 minutes in the preheated oven, or until salmon is easily flaked with a fork.

BEET AND WALNUT SALAD WITH DILL

Steps:

• Position a rack in the center of an oven and preheat to 375°F.
• Remove the beet greens, if attached, leaving about 1 inch of stem attached to the beets; reserve greens for another use.
• Place the beets in a baking dish and cover with water by about 1/4 inch.
• Cover tightly and bake until they can be easily pierced with a knife, about 45 minutes or longer, depending on the size of the beets.
• When the beets are cool enough to handle, peel and cut into thin slices.
• (A mandoline helps make neat, even slices.) Place the beets in a bowl, add the vinegar and toss together gently.
• Let stand for 30 minutes.
• Add the olive oil, dill, garlic and salt, stirring gently so the slices don't break.
• Taste and add more vinegar, if needed.
• Stir in the walnuts and serve.

BEET- AND HORSERADISH-CURED SALMON

Steps:

• If using fresh horseradish, peel, cut into chunks and process in a food processor, using the steel blade. Do not grate it by hand; the fumes will be overpowering. Drape the food processor with a damp towel and carefully crack the lid, under the towel, to absorb the fumes.
• Remove pin bones from salmon and set aside. In a large stainless steel or glass bowl, combine horseradish and remaining ingredients, wearing gloves to avoid turning your hands purple.
• Choose a nonreactive pan that is just large enough to hold the salmon fillet or line a pan with plastic wrap. Drizzle a little of the beet mixture on pan and place the salmon, skin-side down, on top. Cover the flesh with remaining beet mixture, making it thinner on tail and belly section and thicker everywhere else.
• Cover with plastic wrap, place another pan on top, and weight with cans. Cure in refrigerator for 3 days.
• Gently scrape off beet mixture and discard. Cut salmon in thin slices and serve. Whole fillet, well wrapped in plastic, will last 1 week refrigerated.

ROASTED BEETS WITH DILL

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F. Place beets in small roasting pan with 1/4 cup water. Cover pan tightly with foil. Bake until beets are tender when pierced with knife, about 1 hour. Cool slightly. (Can be made 1 day ahead. Cover and refrigerate.) Peel beets. Cut into 1-inch pieces.
• Melt butter in heavy large skillet over medium heat. Stir in dill and lemon juice. Add beets and toss until heated through, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer to bowl; serve.

ROASTED SALMON WITH RED POTATOES AND DILL

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450°.
• In a 15 1/2" x 10 1/2" jelly roll pan, toss potatoes with oil, salt and pepper. Roast potatoes in oven for 10 minutes.
• After 10 minutes, remove pan from oven. With spatula, push potatoes to one end of the pan to make room for the fish.
• Place fish in pan, sprinkle with 1/2 t. salt. Return to oven and continue roasting with potatoes for 15 minutes or until fish flakes easily and potatoes are brown. At this point, you may need to remove the fish and continue roasting the potatoes until done.
• Transfer fish to a platter, top with horseradish sauce and half of the fresh or dried dill.
• Toss potatoes with remaining dill and serve alongside the salmon.

BEET-CURED SALMON

Steps:

• Toast peppercorns, coriander and dill seeds, allspice, and juniper berries in a dry small skillet over medium heat, tossing often, until very fragrant, about 4 minutes. Let cool, then finely grind in spice mill or with mortar and pestle. Transfer to a small bowl and mix in salt, sugar, and lemon zest.
• Lay salmon, skin side down, on a large sheet of parchment paper set on a large rimmed baking sheet. Pack spice cure on both sides of fish, pressing to adhere. Toss beets, chopped dill, and ginger in a medium bowl to combine; pack onto both sides of fish. Fold sides of parchment over salmon, then wrap tightly in plastic. Set another baking sheet on top of salmon and weight with three 28-oz. cans or the equivalent in cookbooks or other things you have in your kitchen. Chill 2 days.
• Unwrap salmon and wipe off aromatics and cure (don't rinse). Thinly slice to serve.
• Do Ahead
• Salmon can be cured 3 days ahead. Rewrap after wiping off aromatics and cure and chill.
