Pour half of the mixture over the salmon. Cook over medium heat, covered, for
5 minutes. Turn salmon and add the rest of the mixture. If it needs more
liquid, add broth 1/4 cup at a time. When salmon is opaque all the way
through, remove from heat. Remove salmon from skin. Pour liquid over linguini
then place chunks of salmon on top. Garnish with slivered pickled ginger.

Any other salmon recipes?

I love salmon! Kick with those recipes folks :P

Yeah, give up those salmon recipes 8)

O.k.....What the heck is mirin?? Also, I like ginger, but am not sure how to go about buying the root. Is there anything to look for, as far as a good vs. bad piece??? Do you peel it?? I think I better start watching Emeril 8O

My Aunt has a great Salmon receipe. When she visits, I'll get it and post.

Mirin is a sweet rice wine often used in Japanese cooking.

Thanks!

You can cook the fish whole or in steaks.

Light your grill and prepare an aluminum foil tray to keep the juices from dripping into the hot coals.

Prepare a sauce of:
2 1/2 tbs vegetable oil
2 1/2 tbs brown sugar
8-10 oz of cheese-tomato sauce
1 lemon, squeezed into sauce pan
1/4 tsp dry mustard
dollop of Worcestershire sauce
1/2 tsp oregano
Let this mixture simmer for about 7-9 minutes

Have on hand:
grated Cheddar cheese
chopped parsley
sesame seeds

Brush on sauce mix, sprinkle on the sesame seeds, and cook for 12 minutes, basting two or three times with the sauce. Sprinkle or spread the grated cheese on the fish and continue cooking another 5-8 minutes without further basting. Put the parsley in the sauce mix and place fish and sauce on the table together.
