With the teenager home from college for the weekend, last night hubby and I got to shop together without little man - most parents understand what a treat that can be. This is what we bought (though we did already have some items in the pantry & fridge):
Tonight we all sat out to decide which meal to start with - We decided on salmon, since we all love it and we are one week from little man's Make-A-Wish trip, to find Shamu in his natural habitat, in Alaska. We are planning to eat a lot of salmon on that trip, so it is like a teaser! And, we all love salmon! Also, we all love the Biltmore Inspirations Mountain Berry Wasabi Mustard! The teenager even steals it and takes it to college, he says it makes the dorm food edible.
Sidetrack: When I first started my Biltmore Inspirations Business, I knew there would be one product that was really hot, the one everyone had to have! I assumed it would be a big, beautiful, expensive decorator piece. Turns out my number one product is the Mountain Berry Wasabi Mustard. It starts in our home with hubby, who will put it on just about anything - some of his favorites are sausage, fish, steak, shrimp, eggs, pretzels, asparagus and broccoli.
Salmon with Mountain Berry Wasabi Sauce
Salt & pepper the salmon and bake it
While it's baking:
Melt 2 table spoons of butter
Add 2 table spoons of flour
Bubbling up and creamy
Add 2/3 cup heavy cream & 1/3 dry white wine
That wonderful "fondue smell" again
Time to add 3 table spoons of the good stuff
We served it with the suggested spinach salad and
some wonderful Parmesan roasted asparagus, that I found on Pinterest
The sauce was so yummy I dipped my asparagus in it too. We will make this sauce for our next fondue party, as a topping for steamed veggies and I am sure we will come up with many more uses. We would love to hear your ideas for it!
Hubby's quote "It is great to be back to trying some new meals again, this is fabulous!"
What did the teenager have to say? "Very delicious, I like the sauce on the salmon" - I guess he thought I was asking about the meal overall, not specifically the sauce.
Little man even ate salmon with something on it besides teriyaki.
He is a purist (salt & pepper), except for his teryaki!
