Sauteed Trout with Sage & Wine Butter

Adapted from a 2013 recipe from Food & Wine Magazine, this Sauteed Trout 'wows' in every way. It's flavorful and quick. An elevated weeknight meal that pairs well with any type of side from risotto or herb roasted potatoes to steamed asparagus or a simple spring salad.


I grew up eating trout. Until middle school, aside from fish sticks, it was the only fish I had ever eaten. We'd spend weekends camping along side the trout streams in Wardensville; Paddy's Run was a huge part of my life. I never had the patience to fish, so I spent more time picking flowers and flipping over stones looking for crawfish while wadding through the cold stream.

Drunken Clams with Noodles

Another amazing recipe from Bon Appetite Magazine. Drunken Clams with Noodles. This warming and nourishing soup is great for these cold days; and not just that but it comes together FAST! These ingredients elevate this recipe, and while they may not be a pantry staple are key to building the flavor.

Tumeric Caramel Cod from Bon Appetite Magazine


temp-post-image


In this month's issue of Bon Appetite (pg. 22) is a simple yet tantalizing recipe for Tumeric Caramel Cod. While caraml might not be your first choice of sauce to pair with fish, the balance of sweet from the brown sugar, salty from the soy and heat from cayenne creates a robust sauce that is the star of the meal. This dish is paired with simple basmati rice, fresh lime wedges (adding in an addition layer to the cod with the smack of citrus) and a fresh herb salad with tender cilantro, mint and sweet onion.



This recipe will be posted at our "Inspiration Station" near the entrance of the shop.

It's National Seafood Month

October is National Seafood Month, so what's a better way to step into the world of blogging than talking about seafood?



As the weather cools, we've finally started to see Large Rockfish, off our Mid-Atlantic Coast line. Just like the snow birds of the East Coast, they head south as the weather cools.



Rockfish, also known as Striped Bass or Stripers are an exciting fish for us to source. Not only do we get to bring in local caught fish, but we also get to support local fisherman and our local industry.



Below you'll find one of my favorite recipes for Rockfish.
