Salmon, Peas and New Potato


I suppose this dish stems from the Mainer’s love of bragging rights.

By July, if you’re a decent gardener you can compile this dish of peas and potatoes from the garden, garnished with fresh dill (my favorite) and sometimes a simple white sauce.

The perfect complement is a savory, fresh and perfectly grilled piece of salmon filet. Crispy skin please! Fresh bread and butter, a green salad from the garden and family..with the promise of whoopie pies and fireworks later…maybe a dip in a lake!

It’s not really a recipe, it’s a state of mind.

Happy Fourth of July everyone. Independence Day. More important to note than ever.
