Grilling Salmon On A Gas Grill
Serving salmon at a christmas party, how do I prepare it?
I’m using fresh salmon because the smoked salmon is so much more expensive. I want to cook it on the grill, gas grill. What is the best way to prepare/serve it?
being that I am originally from the pacific northwest of the US, salmon is one of my favourite foods… not only to eat, but to prepare in various ways… one of my favourite ways to prepare it on a grill, is to simply either slice it into “steaks” or fillets, and lay it in some aluminium foil, cover it with slices of sweet, or red onions (sweet has a nicer flavour, but red makes a “prettier” presentation), and sliced lemon. the lemon and onion add a nice flavour to the fish, and leave it not needing any condiments. as far as smoked salmon… you can buy a regular salmon (I sometimes use leftovers from the grilled salmon I just discribed), and mix it with a “liquid smoke” that will give it the smoke flavouring, without the added cost of buying it smoked. once you have attained the desired “smoke” taste to it, “flake” the fish, and mix with cream cheese, and wrap in a plastic wrap.. refrigerate it for an hour or so, to “set up” then form it into a ball.. you can roll the ball in either dried parsley, or a favourite chopped nuts (may people use smoked almonds), and serve with a nice table cracker… I’ve yet to find the person that didn’t love this way of serving smoked salmon!
