Memery came over for dinner and we had such a lovely evening. I enjoyed getting to know you friend. I had prepared this Orange Salmon for us and was delighted to hear it brought back some wonderful memories of her time in Alaska. She shared stories of dip net fishing and eating fresh caught red salmon. We hope you enjoy this red salmon drenched in a spicy orange sauce as much as we did.
