Penne with Smoked Salmon & Cream Cheese Sauce

This is my family’s all-time favourite dinner party pasta dish. Our friends request it all the time. I’m happy to oblige because it tastes great, and the sauce makes itself! It’s easy. Steaming wet, just-cooked pasta and melting cream cheese form an incredibly smooth luxurious sauce. The smoked salmon adds flavour extravagance that’s balanced by the familiar flavours of capers, dill, lemon, onion and mustard. A five-star dish for sharing!

Potato Fish Cakes

Historically, fish cakes have been one of the most common ways to eat fish in the Maritime Provinces of Canada. Usually they were made with preserved salt cod, but today they’re much tastier with fresh salmon. These crispy cakes are included with the gourmet breakfast served every morning at the beautiful 5-star Inn at Bay Fortune, nestled in Fortune Bay, Prince Edward Island - they are as easy to make as they are to enjoy!

This dish is spectacular enough for a special occasion but easy enough for a quick weeknight dinner.

Prosciutto-Wrapped Salmon

Wrapping prosciutto around salmon fillets is an easy way to dress up fish while adding some intense flavour and bringing flair to your table. The prosciutto is very easy to work with. It actually “shrink wraps” as it cooks, tightly sealing itself to the fish. It’s a spectacular presentation and very tasty.

Maple Mustard Grilled Salmon

Maple Mustard Grilled Salmon

Salmon is a regular guest at our table, often grilled with this simple sauce. Its sweet and pungent flavour easily stands up to the richness of the fish. Whenever possible we choose wild Pacific salmon; it’s the most sustainable choice available. We’re also big fans of farm-raised Atlantic salmon. It’s much better for us, and the environment, than beef or meat every day.
