What a special team you are--educating those wanting to learn. I don't do much cooking now but everything looks great and very healthy. Wish you had asked me whaty ghee was instead of canned tomatoes. I am so glad that I know both you and Jon. What a special team you are–educating those wanting to learn.

Ghee is basically clarified butter, so it adds basically all the flavor and aspects you would want from regular butter, but since the milk solids are removed, the smoking point is higher so you can actually do quite a bit more with your dishes without having to worry about burning the fat (ie stir fry). The brand I have, I ordered online and it's 100% grass-fed ghee, just to add some extra health to it! As for the sockeye, to be completely honest with you, I'm not absolutely confident exactly which fishes are best for you in terms of toxicity levels (obviously everyone knows about tuna). I was at the grocery store and looking to buy some salmon and the only wild type they had was sockeye, so I went with that one, but I imagine all salmon, preferably wild-caught will be alright. I have read some stuff about the feed they give at fish farms and it doesn't seem too different from what they're feeding conventional, highly omega 6-ified cows, so I tend to stick with wild stuff just to be on the safe side. As for how many times you should eat salmon, I took a look at the website you linked, and while I can agree that you could potentially eat salmon as much as you'd like, just be careful in your research for information. Trying to find credible sources for topics on anything, in this case salmon and health will probably be a bit biased and skewed if you're checking a website who's sole purpose is to sell you their salmon. In this case it doesn't matter, salmon is full on healthy, but I just wanted to point that out for future searches on anything - credibility and non-bias is key. Hope this helps!

What is ghee? One of the questions that I have heard quite a bit is how often and much we should we eat salmon. I was interested to see that you used Sockeye salmon which is what I preferred after reading that it was recommended by Dr. Andrew Weil (see http://www.order-salmon.com/buy-sockeye.php ) because Sockeye eat lower on the food chain and are therefore a much healthier and purer fish. After reading your article I thought I would share the information I found on the subject. Another question I have that I have never been sure about is how much salmon should we eat? Since there's bound to be an uptick in salmon consumption of salmon after reading your post, readers can find answers to the question how much salmon to eat at (http://www.order-salmon.com/how-often-should-you-eat-salmon-per-week.php ) as recommended by experts in the field.

I just got some organic pepper and Himalayan sea salt from Sustainable Sourcing https://secure.sustainablesourcing.com and I think I'll try them both out in this recipe. Thanks for sharing!
