Crispy Salmon on Braised Vegetables and Spinach Mash

Crispy Salmon on Braised Vegetables and Spinach Mash

Aug 5, 2013

There is nothing quite like salmon skin cooked to crispy perfection. I regularly make this for dinner parties and have converted many a fish-skin hater. The secret to the crispness is cooking the fish 90 percent of the way through on the skin side (in a nonstick pan!); the key to maintaining it is serving the fish skin side up so that the moisture from the fish and vegetables doesn't turn it soggy. Don't try to turn the salmon too early; if it's sticking to the pan, it's not ready to turn. – Annabelle Waugh, Food director

Oven roast cuts of beef, such as sirloin tip and inside and outside round, are less expensive than premium cuts and can make fine roasts. However, because they are less marbled with fat, they need help to keep them succulent. Here we use a tasty garlic-and-herb-infused butter to do just that.

The secret to meltingly tender beef is all in the right cut: a well-marbled cross-rib pot roast. Bourguignon means as prepared in Burgundy, a district synonymous with Pinot Noir wine. So it makes sense to use a Burgundy or New World Pinot Noir both for braising and serving.
