Smoked salmon is a great ingredient if you want to deliver a hit of flavor to your food. If you’re a fan of this form of fish, check out these suggestions on ways to serve it at home.

Salmon and Eggs

A classic for a good reason, one of the best ways to eat salmon is over bread or toast, topped with some silky scrambled eggs. Don’t forget the black pepper for the eggs and the lemon for the salmon, to deliver a hint of tartness to cut through the richness of the fish and eggs.

Potatoes and Greens

The richness of the salmon sometimes calls for a simple counterpart – which is why boiled potatoes, dressed in a little butter or mayonnaise, combined with some greens such as broccoli, cabbage, or kale, work wonderfully well with a few slices of prime smoked salmon. Dress up the mayonnaise with a squeeze of lemon and a sprinkle of cayenne pepper if you wish.

Smoked Salmon Pasta

What’s better than creamy, savory, smoked salmon pasta? Make a simple béchamel sauce and then stir slices of smoked salmon through it just as it’s cooking. Boil the pasta according to packet instructions, combine the cooked pasta with the sauce, and you’re simple yet delicious dinner is ready.

Fine dining and delicious wines go hand in hand, but it’s extremely important to make the right pick. If you’re thinking of ordering smoked salmon during your fancy dinner, here’s a couple of beverages that will go great with an assertive flavor and oily texture of this pescatarian dish.

Champagne

It’s not a coincidence that smoked salmon is commonly associated with champagne. You can’t go wrong by ordering them together but stick to the classics because white campaigns provide the best match for smoked salmon thanks to their dry finish and sparkly texture.

White Wines

Your second-best option is ordering white wines with this delicious dish. Their light, crisp and subtle taste will provide the perfect balance you’re looking for and offset the smoky and salty flavor of your salmon.

Dry Riesling

This aromatic German wine is also often paired off with smoked salmon, but you have to tread lightly when picking the right one. Certain types can be pretty sweet, so try to steer clear of those because they’re not a great match with this tasty dish.

⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀ My favorite wine of 2018. ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀ 2014 Dreissigacker Kirchspiel Rheinhessen Germany ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀ I have finally worked through all of my tasting notes and there were so many great wines in 2018. I had one wine on two separate occasions that affected me in such a positive way. Remove all of the outside influence, location, people, rarity, etc…and just focus on what that wine is in the glass – and the excitement and pleasure it provides – and you’re left right here…’14 Kirchspiel. ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀ Since 2001 the winery has been under the direction of Jochen Dreissigacker an impassioned winemaker and a farming zealot who nurtures the soil and believes in the energy of the earth. He is a walking revolution in the Rheinhessen and embodies the potential of the region to produce world class dry Riesling. ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀ Gently sloping hills of loess and loam over limestone, organic farming, hand harvesting, tiny yields 15hl/ha, and native yeast ferments. Amazing dry wines that in vintages like 2014 express citrus and aromatic bouquets ranging from floral to herbal and all beautiful. ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀ If you have ever wondered what it means for a wine to have “tension” please try these wines. Or if you’ve wondered what it means when a sommelier says it has “laser like acidity” then try these wines. And if you would like to know what it means to have a wine “balanced with power and grace” – here it is. They are wines that befuddle even the greatest tasters I know, making many ask immediately “How can this be?” “How can a wine have so much concentration, aromatics and yet be so lithe and beautiful on the palate?” ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀ @schatziwines @30acker #dreissigacker #rheinhessen #dryriesling #tenzing2018 #topwine #riesling #myfavoritewine #sommlife #germanriesling
