Tamari Maple Salmon
Salmon is a great fish to thrown on the grill or you can simply broil in your oven or sear on a skillet. It won’t fall apart like more delicate fish.
Tamari (soy sauce without the wheat) always pairs well with salmon. I like to add a touch of sweetness to and I did so by adding real maple syrup.
While you’re grilling the salmon, throw some sweet local corn on there as well. I get mine from Bedner’s Farm on 441 (that’s where the spinach and strawberries came from too!). Check out your local farm for fresh veggies and grill them up with a good piece of fish.
