Savour the exquisite flavours of Black Garlic Balsamic Glazed Salmon, a dish that beautifully marries the richness of salmon with a tangy, sweet, and savoury balsamic glaze. The glaze, made from Black Garlic Balsamic Vinegar with Jarrah Honey, Black Garlic Savoury Paste, vegetable stock, honey, and Dijon mustard, is simmered to perfection, adding a complex depth of flavour to the salmon. Once reduced and strained, this glaze becomes the star of the dish, infusing each bite with a rich, tangy sweetness.
Accompanying the salmon is a fresh, vibrant salad of finely sliced fennel, peppery rocket leaves, crumbled Greek feta, toasted pine nuts, and semi-dried tomato strips. This combination provides a delightful contrast of textures and flavours, balancing the richness of the salmon. The salad is tossed together just before serving, ensuring crispness and freshness. To complete the dish, the salmon fillets are pan-fried until perfectly cooked, then placed on top of the salad and generously drizzled with the luscious balsamic glaze. Finished with a seasoning of salt and pepper, this dish is a feast for both the eyes and the palate, perfect for a sophisticated yet straightforward meal.

Directions
Make the balsamic glaze by mixing the Black Garlic Balsamic Vinegar with Jarrah Honey in a small saucepan with Black Garlic Savoury Paste, liquid stock and honey.
Simmer rapidly until it has reduced by half, then stir in Dijon mustard.
Put through a strainer and set aside.
In the meantime, prepare the salad by tossing all the salad ingredients together. Once the salad and glaze are ready, cook the salmon.
Heat olive oil in a large non-stick frying pan at a moderate temperature. Put salmon fillets in the pan and fry each side for a couple of minutes until cooked to your liking. Add more olive oil if needed.
Serve salmon on top of the salad and drizzle all over with balsamic glaze.
Season with salt and pepper.
