Fresh salmon abounds in the NW this time of year. Here's a very tasty rub you can use to flavor your fresh-caught fish. It's best used on more robust flavored fish, rather than milder, white fish. Earthiness joins the sea.
Ingredients:
2 pounds of salmon fillets, skin on, center cut, about an inch thick
1 1/2 teaspoon finely ground French roast coffee
1 teaspoon brown sugar
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon coriander
1/2 teaspoon chili powder
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons olive oil
Preparation: Mix all of the seasoning ingredients together in a glass bowl. Take a teaspoon and sprinkle and press into fish flesh. Grill fish on high--approx. 4-5 minutes per side.
