Recipe Review

This recipe will produce a lovely meal in around 30 minutes! Cooked soba noodles are tossed with a pesto-like mix of pine nuts, lemon zest, lemon juice (both replaced with lime) and garlic. This is served alongside fish, oven roasted with olive oil and cumin seeds.

I appreciated that you didn't have to grind the cumin, but instead toasted the seeds and then sauéed with the oil. We substituted salmon for the char, and the oil topping did make the fish super moist. However, I didn't think cumin tasted right with the salmon.

The soba, on the other hand, was easy and delightful.
Next time, I will use an alternative spice for the salmon, and keep the soba exactly the same.
