Brad's seared salmon w/ squash noodles & shallot mushroom sauce
This turned out amazing. The key is using fresh fish. I use the tail section of the fillets. They are more even rather than a thick shoulder and a thin belly, and Sear way better. The squash noodles can be made with a food processor, a salad machine or several other hand operated gadgets. Some stores will make these as well.

I served this over braised Napa cabbage with a garlic and chive whipped marscapone. And added a bacon garlic parmesan risotto on the side. I hope you enjoy. -

Pan Fried Salmon with Creamy Maitake Mushroom Sauce Pan Fried Salmon with Creamy Maitake Mushroom Sauce
I always eyeball the ingredients, so I measured them properly for this recipe and uploaded it.The sauce turns this rather dull grey because of the maitake mushrooms, but if you use other types of mushrooms it will form a nice white sauce. Use soy milk instead of milk for a healthier version. For 4 servings. Recipe by Ryokicchin
