Tip

Smoked Salmon

Fresh salmon that has undergone a smoking process by either hot or cold smoking. Cold-smoking, producing a product called lox, is brined or cured in salt and/or sugar before smoking at 70-90 degree temperatures. The result is a salmon that is delicate in texture and flavor. It is usually served in paper-thin slices. Hot-smoking is a process in which the salmon is smoked for hours in temperatures of 120-180 degrees producing a firm, flaky texture and a stronger smoky flavor.

Light-Bodied White Wine

Enjoy this recipe with a light-bodied white wine such as Sauvignon Blanc or Pinot Grigio.

We liked this okay but given all the awesome ingredients I expected something more. I added some chipotle peppers in adobo sauce to the bean mixture, but the end result was still a little bland.
