Salmon is a staple in the Pacific Northwest and this simple meal is perfect for special company or a nice Sunday family dinner. For the perfect spring time dinner party, accompany with Mushroom and Wild Rice Pilaf, Stir-Fried Asparagus & Sugar Snap Peas and Strawberry, Goat Cheese and Pine Nut Salad. These recipes are adapted from a magazine called Taste which is put out be various alcohol distributors. Needless to say - serve this witha well chilled Chardonnay or Pinto Grigio. BTW - there's a lovely new US Pinot Grigio out that's crisp & refreshing with overtones of citrus & green apple. Very good price point too. It's Barefoot Pinot Grigio.
