Soy Glazed Salmon; A.C.E. Class “What’s for Breakfast” concludes October 22; A. C. E Bistro Lunch Class on October 30

Soy Glazed Baked Salmon

Pictured above is this dish with Roasted Carrots with Lemon and Thyme and Baked Pommes Frites.  I am reluctant to call them French fries because they were done in the oven, not fried in oil.  I was testing them out for the Bistro Lunch class (see below) and had 3 batches seasoned with, respectively, Cumin, Paprika, and Smoked Paprika.  In a taste test, the smoked paprika won, so that is what we will be using in the class.

 
The Salmon recipe is one I saved from a Food Network Magazine from 2012.  The link to the recipe is below.  The glaze is made with Honey, Soy Sauce, and Corn Starch.  To start, you season the salmon with salt and pepper and brush on Sesame Oil.  After baking for 5 minutes in a 400 degree oven, you take the fish from the oven, brush on the Honey/Soy Glaze, then return to the oven for about 10 minutes.  I’ve made this recipe twice recently, and everyone really enjoyed it.

“What’s for Breakfast?” Class Concludes

 

The class concluded on Saturday, October 22.  Because of a scheduling conflict, the last session was moved from the Plum Center to Lake Braddock Secondary School in Burke, but everything went off without a hitch.  We made Cinnamon Banana Crepes, Breakfast Potatoes, and the featured item was a Vegetable Frittata, pictured above.

 

Bistro Lunch Class

 

This one session class meets this Sunday afternoon October 30 at 1:00 PM at the Plum Center in Springfield.  I have a very ambitious menu planned for our 3 hours, featuring Bistro Steaks with a Lemon Garlic Aioli (pictured above in a food processor) and Pommes Frites.  We will also be making a Goat Cheese and Pear Salad, a Quick Ratatouille, and a Strawberry Clafoutis.
