- 1 teaspoon Meyer lemon zest plus 1 tablespoon Meyer lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest plus 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 cup mint leaves, finely minced
- 1 cup parsley leaves, finely minced
- ¼ cup extra virgin olive oil
Instructions
Potatoes
- Preheat oven to 425°F.
- Rinse potatoes under cold running water. Place them in a large pot of cold, salted water and bring to a boil. Once boiling, cook for 4 minutes, then strain.
- Shake excess water out of the colander, then toss potatoes with olive oil. Spread them out on a large baking sheet and season generously with sea salt and pepper.
- Roast for 25–30 minutes, flipping potatoes halfway through.
- Keep warm while preparing the salmon.
Chimichurri
- Combine shallot, garlic, sea salt, and lemon juice in a bowl; set aside for 10 minutes.
- Fold in herbs and olive oil. Adjust salt to taste.
Salmon
- When potatoes come out of the oven, turn the broiler to high.
- In a small bowl, mix the lemon zest and olive oil.
- Cut the salmon fillet into 4 equal pieces. Place them skin-side down on a rimmed baking sheet. Drizzle with the olive oil mixture and season generously with sea salt.
- Broil until the salmon is just pale, puffed up, and has golden flecks, about 5–7 minutes. If needed, keep the oven door slightly open to ensure the broiler stays on.
- Remove the salmon from the baking sheet immediately. Serve with a drizzle of chimichurri and a lemon wedge, with potatoes on the side.

French Apple Cake

Serves 8
Ingredients List
- 1 cup all-purpose flour, spooned into measuring cup and leveled off
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ½ cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, at room temperature
- ⅔ cup granulated sugar, plus more for sprinkling over cake
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 3 tablespoons dark rum
- 2 baking apples, peeled, cored, and cut into ½-inch cubes (3½ to 4 cups chopped)
- Confectioners' sugar (optional), for decorating cake
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and set an oven rack in the middle position. Grease a 9-inch springform or regular cake pan with butter or nonstick cooking spray. If using a regular cake pan, line the bottom with parchment paper and grease again.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
- Using a handheld mixer or stand mixer with a paddle attachment, cream the butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well and scraping down the sides after each addition. Beat in the vanilla and rum. The batter may look grainy, but that’s okay.
- Add the flour mixture and mix on low speed until just combined. Using a rubber spatula, fold in the chopped apples.
- Scrape the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top. Sprinkle evenly with 1 tablespoon of granulated sugar.
- Bake for about 40 minutes, or until the cake is golden and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let cool on a rack in the pan.
- Once cool, run a blunt knife around the edges. If using a springform pan, remove the sides. If using a regular pan, invert the cake onto the rack, remove the parchment paper, then gently flip it right-side-up onto a platter.
- Dust with confectioners' sugar, if desired. Serve warm or at room temperature, plain or with lightly sweetened whipped cream or vanilla ice cream.
