A Little Background
One would think that a dish built around salmon should remind me of my life living on the west coast of Canada, home of arguably some of the best salmon in the world and definitely one of the most abundant sources, but strangely enough this dish reminds me of Sydney more than anything. When I first moved to Sydney in the mid 90’s I was blown away to see how many local menus featured salmon. Canadians weren’t the only ones with a taste for this beautiful fish and obviously Canada and Scandinavia weren’t the only source for it! Some excellent Atlantic salmon was and is being farmed in Tasmania.
There are subtle differences between all varieties of salmon and each breed has its own unique characteristics. Whether it is a coho, pink or sockeye from the coast of British Columbia or Atlantic from the farms of Tasmania, this dish will be a welcome addition to any hot summer patio filled with friends and chilled Verdelho.
