Salmon with Dill and Leeks Recipe

Fall is lovely but it can bring on really heavy stewy dishes. If you need a break try this light salmon dish using the currently in season leeks. Leeks are lovely and underrated. They turn really sweet when sauteed and are a nice contrast in texture to the crispy salmon.

Salmon with Fennel, Orange and Rosemary Recipe

Salmon with Fennel, Orange and Rosemary Recipe

Fennel and orange is a classic combination, which until now, I never had the opportunity to try. When I saw more beautiful fresh fennel at the farmers market I knew it was time.
