Seared Salmon at Cafe 1912
by Stacey Greenberg
I'm pretty sure that there's only one place that can put salmon and raisins in the same sentence and make it sound good: Café 1912. The seared salmon on sautéed spinach with pine nuts, golden raisins, and olive tapenade is a testament to the restaurant's consistency and creativity. The dish is hearty, earthy, and full of flavor. The spinach, perfectly cooked and easy to chew, forms the base. The filet of salmon, which is covered with the rich, black-olive tapenade, rests on top. The golden raisins, accompanied by pine nuts, are sprinkled around the dish to add even more texture and flavor. As a bonus, these ingredients — many of which top the "super foods" lists from year to year — are full of nutrients. This is definitely a dish to enjoy and truly make your mother proud. — Stacey Greenberg
