Dear all,
On a quest for 'key lime juice' this afternoon ( more on this to follow...), I popped into the glorious Sobeys and ended up ( as always) coming out with a bag of goodies that I really had no intention of getting on entering the store.
Needless to say, one must always eat and I had a gastronomic treat waiting for D when he came home from work. I had purchased on very high recommendation, two Atlantic Salmon Steaks from the nice man on the fish counter. He said despite the buck difference in price, I should absolutely go 'Altantic'. So I did. FYI: for all 'fish' enthusiasts out there, a brief description of the Atlantic 'Salmo'.
Atlantic Ocean species
The Atlantic ocean has only one species of salmon, in the genus Salmo:
- Atlantic salmon, or salmon, (Salmo salar), which reproduces in northern rivers on both coasts of the ocean. Yet there are also
- Land-locked salmon (Salmo salar m. sebago), which live in a number of lakes in eastern North America and in Northern Europe, for instance in lakes Onega,Ladoga, Saimaa and Vänern. They are not a different species from the Atlantic salmon, but have independently evolved a non-migratory life style, which they maintain, even when access to the sea is not barred.
I also bought some shrimp and marinated everything in a self-devised marinade including teriyaki sauce, peppers, garlic, onion and chillis. I get the cedar plank soaking and popped the labyrinth on whilst I got stuck into a 'green' nude ( My latest artistic experiment)
