Slow Cooked Copper River Salmon










We went to the Hollywood Farmer's Market and purchased lots of vegetables. Just before we left we noticed the fish monger was featuring Copper River Salmon. It would be the last week it would be available. We changed our dinner plans (we had plan to go out) and purchased the salmon so that we could enjoy it one last time this year. We again used the slow cooking method, cooking it at a very low temperature on a bed of onions. We seasoned it with the Okinawa Salt that we had purchased in Japan. It is the best salt!

We grilled Corn on the Cob, and Asparagus as side dishes. It was a warm summer night and we started on the deck with a great plate: Fresh Black Mission Figs, Prosciutto from The Cheese Store of Silverlake, and Cheese. We had a bottle of Les Arnevels Rose Cotes de Provence - 2006.

For desert, we had purchased a box of Cherries at the Hollywood Farmer's Market, we pitted them and baked them with butter and a little sugar. We then served them over a Brownie from La Brea Bakery. Decadent but delicious!
