Smashed Bacony Potatoes with Kale and Roasted Salmon Recipe

Since falling in love with very smoky Tennessee bacon (Benton's), I've moved to using it as a flavor agent; I almost never eat it on its own. Any very smoky bacon will do. This is a hearty winter dish, layering potatoes with kale and crisp-skinned roasted salmon.

Halibut with Bacony Corn Sauté Recipe

Be sure to buy fresh, never-frozen fish, summer corn on the cob and in the husks, and your favorite bacon. Applewood-smoked bacon is more subtle than hickory or mesquite and won't clobber all of the other ingredients. Just a spritz of fresh lime juice brings the flavors into perfect balance.

Sorghum-Roasted Salmon

Sorghum-Roasted Salmon Recipe

Sorghum is essentially a grass, raised primarily as a feed grain in the heartland of the U.S. In the southeastern U.S., though, if you say sorghum, someone might exclaim "biscuit!" Sorghum syrup, made from a variety known as sweet sorghum, has a light, molasses-y, toasty, minerally flavor that takes well to savory-sweet applications. This simply glazed salmon was a hit with the Cooking Light test kitchen team in recipe trials.

Sautéed Black Grouper with Peach Relish Recipe

Black grouper, a mild white-fleshed fish, comes from the Gulf of Mexico and is a sustainable seafood choice, but not all kinds of grouper are. This particular cut of fish pairs wonderfully with a spicy-sweet peach relish.

It's worth the tiny bit of effort to toast and grind your own cumin seeds--the flavor payoff is huge. That practice, used widely in many cuisines to bring out the aromatic goodness of spices, lends a depth that complements the buttery richness of the fish.
