Time 14h

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

1 1/2 cups sugar
3/4 cups water
2 lemons, cut into eighths
3 cups lemon juice
1/4 cup sherry vinegar
1 tablespoon chopped shallot
2 cloves garlic, coarsely chopped
3/4 cup olive oil
Salt and freshly ground pepper
1/4 cup capers, drained
2 tablespoons finely chopped parsley
2 Idaho potatoes, peeled and thinly sliced on a mandolin
3 tablespoons olive oil
Salt and freshly ground pepper
4 salmon fillets, 6 ounces each
Olive oil
Salt and freshly ground pepper
Chopped flat leaf parsley

Steps:

  • For the vinaigrette: Place sugar and water in a medium nonreactive saucepan over high heat and bring to a boil. Continue boiling until sugar has completely melted. Reduce heat to low, add the lemon wedges and cook slowly until almost soft. Remove with a slotted spoon and place on a baking rack. Let dry at room temperature overnight.
  • Place lemon juice in a small nonreactive saucepan and cook until reduced to 1/4 cup, let cool.
  • Place cooled lemon syrup, sherry vinegar, shallots and garlic in a blender and blend until smooth. With the motor running, slowly add the olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Pour into a bowl and fold in the parsley.
  • Fry capers in oil until crisp, about 1 1/2 minutes. Drain on paper towel.
  • For the potatoes: Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Toss the potatoes with the oil and season with salt and pepper to taste. Arrange the potatoes in an even layer in the bottom of 4 small cazuelas. Place in the oven and bake 3/4 of the way through.
  • For the salmon: Remove the potatoes from the oven and reduce the heat to 250 degrees F. Lightly brush the salmon on both sides with olive oil and season with salt and pepper to taste. Place the salmon on top of the potatoes and return the cazuelas to the oven. Bake for 12 to 14 minutes, until cooked through. Remove from oven and immediately drizzle with lemon vinaigrette, and sprinkle with chopped parsley and capers.

Categories     Salad     Vegetable     Side     Thanksgiving     Healthy

Yield 8-10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 medium heads chicory (see note)
1.5 pounds Brussels sprouts
1/4 C chopped preserved lemon
Juice from 1/2 fresh lemon
2 Tbs white wine vinegar
1/4-1/2 C olive oil
finely chopped parsley (optional).

Steps:

  • Bring large pot of water to a boil. Meanwhile prepare an ice water bath. Blanch Brussels Sprout leaves in boiling water for 1 minute. Immediately transfer to ice-water bath. Drain, spin dry, and place in large bowl. Wash chicories. Roll leaves into cigar shapes and cut into thin ribbons. Add to bowl with Brussels. Make vinaigrette: put preserved lemon, fresh lemon juice, and vinegar in a small jar and shake well. Add 1/4 C olive oil and shake very well. Taste. Adjust acid and oil according to taste. Mix salad and serve immediately. Can add a handful of finely chopped parsley if you like.

Tips:

  • For the best flavor, use fresh lemons with no blemishes or bruises. Organic lemons are ideal, as they will have fewer pesticides and chemicals.
  • When preserving lemons, make sure to use a clean, sterilized jar. This will help to prevent contamination and ensure that the lemons will keep for a long time.
  • To make the vinaigrette, start with a good quality olive oil. A fruity, extra-virgin olive oil will give the dressing the best flavor.
  • Use fresh herbs, such as parsley, cilantro, or basil, to add flavor to the vinaigrette. You can also add a teaspoon of Dijon mustard for a bit of tang.
  • Season the vinaigrette to taste with salt and pepper. You can also add a squeeze of lemon juice or a pinch of red pepper flakes for extra flavor.
  • Store the vinaigrette in a jar or bottle in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks. Shake well before using.
