Our Creative Cooking Crew took the Summer off and now we are back to bring you many wonderful creative dishes.
This month is: Get creative with the first meal of the day. It can be, sweet, savory, or somewhere in between. Just make it interesting!
The husband is on his diet, again, so I tried to make it this dish as healthy as possible.
I followed Julia Child’s recipe for Gravlax and the rest came from my kitchen.
I hope that you will try it the future because it was quite refreshing, filling and really satisfying.
Egg salad: 4 hard-boiled eggs, 1 tablespoon chopped fresh dill, 3 tablespoons Greek yogurt, 1 tablespoon grain mustard, salt/pepper to taste. You can alter the amount of mustard and yogurt to your liking.
Zucchini pancakes: 3 green zucchinis grated (put in paper towels after grating and squeeze until no liquid is left). In a bowl add 1 egg white, 1 teaspoon of dill, salt/pepper, whisk then add zucchini and mix. Add some oil to a frying pan and when heated, form small pancakes and cook until golden on both sides.
I garnished with red onions, salmon caviar and capers–it’s a great touch!
BUEN PROVECHO!

I love it! I’ve actually been thinking about making gravlax. Never actually tried it before. Does it taste super dilly? I’m not a huge fans of the herb, but I’m curious. Also, did you make a smaller piece of salmon or did you make a big batch like the recipe says? I’ve been thinking about trying it with a smaller piece of salmon so it doesn’t go to waste.
I did with a smaller piece of salmon. They both should match. I followed her recipe and to me it needed a bit more sugar and I used a whole,bottle of cognac. Like the ones you get on the plane. Not dilly at all. A lot of people don’t like the herb. It can be overwhelming but use at your discretion. My husband is earring it now. Lol
I made split pea soup the other day and loaded it with dill! I am afraid to make gravlax but yours look amazing.
That’s a very inspired dish with a beautiful presentation.
A beautiful presentation for sure! I love your vision and excecution on the dish. It looks just like you had described it to me. Delicious!
I have never made gravlax…this looks seriously delicious and I love the chic presentation.
love this!!
Thanks Manuel
