  • ¼ cup soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons sliced green onions
  • 1 teaspoon rice wine vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon sriracha
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • ½ teaspoon sesame seeds

METHOD


  • Make the Salmon Poke – In a medium bowl, combine diced salmon, soy sauce, green onions, rice wine vinegar, sriracha, and sesame oil. Cover and refrigerate while making the pickled cucumbers.
  • Make the Pickled Cucumbers – In a medium saucepan, combine rice wine vinegar, water, honey, salt, and chili flakes. Bring to a boil over high heat. Once boiling, turn off the heat, add cucumber slices, and stir. Marinate for 10 minutes, then transfer the cucumber mixture to a container. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use or freeze for 5 to 10 minutes to cool quickly.
  • Make the Sriracha Mayonnaise – In a small bowl, whisk the Sriracha and mayonnaise until combined.
  • Assemble the Bowl – To serve, add any additional ingredients to the bowl, such as rice or salad for the base. Top with salmon poke, pickled cucumbers, and Sriracha mayonnaise.


Notes


  • Salmon Selection: Purchase sashimi-grade or sushi-grade salmon.
  • Sriracha Substitute: Use garlic chili sauce, chili paste, chili crisp, or gochujang.
  • Cucumber Substitute: Slice about 1 cup of English or regular cucumbers.
  • Make-Ahead: The pickled cucumbers and sriracha sauce can be refrigerated and made 5 days in advance. It’s best to eat the salmon poke on the same day of preparation.

TURKISH EGGS 2 Servings | 10 minutes INGREDIENTS 1 1/2 cups Greek yogurt 2 cloves garlic minced 1/4 teaspoon salt 1/4 teaspoon pepper 3 tablespoons vinegar 4 large eggs room temperature 2 tablespoons butter 1 teaspoon sweet paprika METHOD Combine the yogurt, garlic, salt, and pepper, and mix until combined. Bring a large saucepan of water to a boil. Once it begins to boil, reduce the heat to low and add the vinegar. Using a metallic spoon, give the water a stir in the center and, one at a time, break the eggs into them. Cook the eggs for 2-3 minutes, or until the whites are set. Using a large metal spoon, remove the eggs from the boiling water. In a small saucepan, add the butter and once melted, add the sweet paprika and whisk until combined. Divide the yogurt into two bowls, top with two eggs each, and drizzle the sweet paprika butter sauce over the top. NOTES TO STORE: I don’t recommend storing poached eggs as they’ll lose their runny yolks. Everything else can be stored in separate airtight containers in the fridge for up to one week. TO REHEAT: The butter can be warmed on the stovetop or in the microwave. Eggs should be poached freshly to order.
