Cooking instruction summary:

  1. In a small mixing bowl or blender, combine all of the ingredients for the balsamic marinade except for the lemon juice (balsamic vinegar, apple cider vinegar, 1 tbsp grapeseed oil, honey, dried dill, herbs de provence, salt and pepper).
  2. Whisk or blend until oil and vinegar are well incorporated and no longer separate.
  3. Place salmon fillet in a baking dish (I use a small casserole dish). Pour the marinade over the salmon and allow it to marinate for at least 15 minutes (or up to 24 hours covered in the refrigerator).
  4. Turn your oven on high broil.
  5. Just before putting the salmon in the oven, drizzle the lemon juice over the fish.
  6. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes on the top rack or until salmon is glazed, browned and sizzling.
  7. While the salmon is baking, prepare the asparagus.
  8. Wash the asparagus and cut off the bottom inch and a half of each stalk and discard.
  9. Spread the asparagus on in a large skillet. Drizzle the grapeseed oil over the asparagus and spread the oil on the asparagus with your hands so that all stalks are completely coated.
  10. Sprinkle asparagus with desired amount of salt and pepper.
  11. Saute over medium heat for 5 minutes.
  12. Add the two tablespoons of vegetable stock and cover the skillet.
  13. Saute 4 minutes.
  14. Remove lid and add the minced garlic.
  15. Place cover back over the asparagus.
  16. Continue cooking an additional 3 to 5 minutes until asparagus is cooked but not too soft. Grate lemon zest over the top of the asparagus.

Food Joke

The Freudian Slip Ted and John are setting in the bar and John asked Ted if he bought the train tickets to go see the Steelers game this weekend. Ted says yea and kinda looked a little funny. John said is there anything wrong? Ted said naw, everythings OK. They take a few more sips of beer and Ted ask John if he had ever embarrassed himself by saying something he didnít mean to say. John said sure, it happens to everyone. Ted said thereís a name for that isnít there...you know, where you accidently use the wrong words when you are trying to say something. Yea, says John, itís called a Freudian slip. Yea, thats it said Ted, I couldnít think of the word. Why are you asking said John? Well, yesterday I went to the train station to get the train tickets for Pittsburg, and the girl selling tickets has this incredible set of jugs. I pulled out the money and laid it on the counter and asked her to give me two pickets to Titsburg and then had to embarrassingly say I mean two tickets to Pittsburg. God, it just embarressed the shit out of me. You ever done anything that stupid? ì Funny you would askî, said John. Just this morning my wife and I...gosh, I guess weíve been married going on 23 years now..., were having breakfast. I was reading the paper and drinking my coffie. I meant to say, ìdear, would you please pass me the sugarî,but instead I said, 'You fucking bitch, youíve ruined my life.'"
