Espresso Cured Salmon

Espresso may not be the first flavor that comes to mind when thinking about salmon, but think again. The deep, nutty tones of espresso balanced with the sweetness of light brown sugar add vibrancy to the subtle taste of salmon. Pan roast your salmon a bit longer to give it an extra crispy layer of flavor.
