Sugar & Spice Salmon Rocks the House!

Last night, the Brighton store held its annual no holds barred chocolate samping extravaganza - Chocolate Fest 2009! Chocoholics flocked to our humble little store to try a myriad of chocolate-y treats. Children’s eyes lit up at the sight of chocolate flowing from a mini fountain in the produce department while their parents tried to show restraint, but mostly failed to. Who can blame them with all the samples of organic truffles, chocolate covered cocoa nibs, rich European-style hot chocolate and crepes stuffed with bananas and ganache. How do you say “no” to Chocolate Explosion cake served on a tray by a stylish & sassy bakery team member (Jena owns the funkiest tights on the East Coast!).
But the sample that caught most people off guard and blew all the others out of the water was the “Sugar & Spice Rubbed Salmon” served by Raul in the Seafood Dept. It’s too good not to share the recipe, so here it is:
Sugar & Spice Rubbed Salmon
1/4 cup sugar
1 teaspoon dry mustard
1/8 teaspoon cinnamon
1 Tablespoon paprika
1 teaspoon cocoa powder
1/4 cup chile powder
1 Tablespoon ground cumin
2 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 1/2 Tablespoons Kosher salt
1 Tablespoon olive oil
1 (16 oz) salmon fillet
Whisk together the sugar, dry mustard, cinnamon, paprika, cocoa powder, chile powder, cumin, black pepper and salt. Coat salmon with oil and liberally rub spice mixture on fish.
Bake salmon at 400 degrees or grill until cooked through, about 10-15 minutes depending on thickness.
