Tuna Poke
On occasion, I just don’t want to cook in the kitchen and you want something cooling to fill your belly. There’s a Hawaiian dish called poke, a quick marinate of cubed fish and it is often served on a bowl of rice and assorted condiments or (in this case) like an appetizer.
Icelandic Ocean Perch with Rice
Icelandic ocean perch is wild-caught, sustainable and abundant around the waters of Iceland and in season from April to September. Ocean perch feed mostly on crustaceans, which explains why this fish is so tasty!
Recap – Yialos Seafood Supper Club
Last month I hosted my latest Greek Supper Club – an evening of fish and seafood dishes at the St. Lawerence Market Kitchen.
Seafood Giouvarlakia Soup
The soup is finished with an egg/lemon emulsion we call “Avgolemono” and it does deliver!

Salmon Souvlaki
If a Greek can affix something on a stick, they will grill it! So far we have pork, chicken, beef, lamb, shrimp, octopus (that I can recall) and now, salmon.
