Best Soba Noodle Salad With Salmon And Asparagus Recipes

SALMON LOVA WITH SOBA NOODLES AND CUCUMBER SALAD

Steps:

• Pour the warm water into a medium mixing bowl. Place the spring roll wraps in the water and press down until totally immersed. When the wraps are soft, remove from the water and using your fingertips, pat lightly with olive oil. Place the salmon fillet in the center of the wrapper and season with a pinch of salt and pepper. Fold the left and right sides of the wrap over the fish. Then fold the top and bottom. Turn over and pat with more olive oil. Repeat the process until all are completed.
• Using an ovenproof nonstick pan, heat the clarified butter. Place the salmon fillets in the pan, seam side down, lightly brown one side, turn over, and finish in a 400 degree oven for approximately 10 minutes. Plate with the soba noodles and cucumber salad and top the salmon with the beurre blanc. Garnish with julienned pickled ginger
• Cook the soba noodles according to the instructions on the package in boiling salted water until al dente, 6 to 8 minutes. Rinse and chill. Add the cucumbers, Japanese vinaigrette, and dashi to the noodles and gently toss together. Garnish with toasted sesame seeds.
• Put all the ingredients in a bowl and whisk until thoroughly blended. Process until the mixture is rough-textured, not completely smooth.

LEMONY SALMON AND ASPARAGUS SALAD

Steps:

• Using a sharp peeler, peel the asparagus into ribbons and add to a large bowl. Add the snow peas, mint, pistachios, feta, lemon juice and zest, 2 tablespoons of the olive oil and a sprinkle of salt and pepper and toss gently. Set aside.
• Heat a large nonstick pan over a medium heat. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil. Season the salmon fillets on both sides with the lemon pepper. Cook the salmon until golden brown, about 3 minutes. Flip the salmon and cook to desired doneness, about another 2 to 4 minutes, depending on thickness of your fillets.
• Serve family style, placing the salad on a platter with the salmon on top. Place the Fried Eggs over the salmon and garnish with balsamic glaze and mint leaves. Or serve individual portions on 4 plates.
• Heat some oil in a nonstick skillet over medium heat. There should be just enough oil to cover the edges of the eggs when they are cracked into the skillet.
• Once the oil is mildly hot, crack in the eggs one at a time. Cook until the eggs begin to turn white, then use a small spoon to carefully spoon the hot oil over only the whites of the eggs (avoiding the yolks). This will help the whites cook slowly so the tops will set but still look pretty. Important: Don't spoon any oil over the yolks yet! Only spoon oil over the whites for now to prevent the eggs from turning cloudy.
• After a minute or two of cooking, once the whites are set and not jiggly or loose, carefully spoon the oil over the yolks. Continue spooning the oil over the eggs until they appear to be done to your liking.
• Remove the eggs from the skillet with a slotted spatula, then drain them briefly on a paper towel before serving.

SOBA SALAD WITH ASPARAGUS AND SHRIMP

Steps:

• In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook asparagus until crisp-tender, about 3 minutes. With a slotted spoon or mesh strainer, transfer asparagus to a colander and rinse under cool water to stop the cooking. Transfer asparagus to a medium bowl. Return water to a boil; add shrimp and cook until pink and opaque throughout, about 2 minutes. Transfer shrimp to bowl with asparagus. Return water to a boil; add noodles and cook according to package instructions. Drain noodles and rinse under cool water.
• Meanwhile, in a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, oil, vinegar, and sugar. Divide noodles among 4 bowls and drizzle with dressing. Top with asparagus and shrimp and sprinkle with scallions and basil.
