Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Put the peppers in a baking dish and put them in the oven. Roast them for 10 to 12 minutes. The skin will shrivel and begin to blacken in spots. Let the peppers cool in a paper bag. Remove the skin from them then slit the peppers open and remove the stems, seeds and veins.

  2. Step 2

    Put the peppers in a blender and add the lemon juice, sugar and salt. Blend to a smooth puree. Put the puree in a small saucepan and warm it slightly.

  3. Step 3

    Heat the oil in a saute pan and add the onion. Cook for one minute, then add the chanterelles, reduce the heat, cover and cook for 10 minutes, adding a little water if needed.

  4. Step 4

    Grill the salmon fillets or bake them on a lined baking sheet in a 350-degree oven for 12 to 15 minutes.

  5. Step 5

    When the salmon is done, put some of the red pepper puree in the middle of each plate. Cover the puree with some of the mushrooms, put the salmon fillets on top and serve.

I thought the purée overwhelmed the flavor of the salmon.

Does anyone else have a problem with the roasting time for the peppers? This is far too short!

I've made this recipe and it is delicious! However, it was from Jack Czarnecki's book called A Cook's Book of Mushrooms published in 1995. The recipe here is virtually identical, word for word. I don't know who plagiarized whom, but they should have been acknowledged!

per my instructors at Peter Kump's NY Cooking School, recipes are neither plagiarized nor their source(s) necessarily acknowledged.

I'm glad the Times finally started linking the original articles from which older recipes came. Because it turns out, that author and book were indeed acknowledged. Nobody plagiarized anybody, we can all enjoy with no twinge of complicity in a ripoff. "An unusual recipe for these mushrooms, served with red peppers and salmon, is given in "A Cook's Book of Mushrooms" (Artisan) by Jack Czarnecki, proprietor of Joe's restaurant in Reading, Pa."
