I really like fish. We eat it a lot in my house, and I love it. Salmon is probably my favorite, mainly because it can be used in so many dishes and we eat the most of it. It's weird, because while I will eat a tuna steak, I really hate canned tuna and tuna salad. I don't know if it's the smell or the way it looks, I've just never been fond of it.
Quick story about tuna fish. According to my mother, when she was in labor with me my father got hungry at some point and got a tuna salad hoagie. Apparently, she got really mad and kicked my father out of the delivery room because having a hoagie around is, I guess, not what you want when you are giving birth. So, maybe this is why I hate tuna fish.
Anyhow, back to the salmon. To make the salmon, I just squeezed some fresh lemon juice on it with some salt and pepper and cooked it on the grill. While it was cooking, my mentor helped me make pineapple salsa. I learned how to cut a pineapple, which I had never done before, and got to eat some of the fresh pineapple, something I don't get to do very often. While the salsa didn't turn out quite right, but it was OK. We were missing a few of the ingredients so we made so substitutions, and that's probably why it didn't turn out the way we expected.
The rice we made was a wild rice mix. To make it more flavorful, we cooked it with chicken broth, and it tasted really good.
