Pineapple Red Thai Curry With Shrimp & Salmon

Pineapple Red Thai Curry With Shrimp & Salmon.

Dr. Wendy Dearborne
This is a newbie for me, and I have to say, it’s a Keeper! It was OFF-THE-CHAIN! Sweet, sour with a kick of chili. I had some uncooked shrimp and salmon, but not enough to prepare dinner for two out of one or the other. So I decide to put the together in a red Thai curry sauce.

You don’t always need meat, poultry, fish, seafood or even dairy to have a flavorful, delicious, and satisfying meal. I can hear the push back already. But you don’t. It’s all about your selection of herbs, spices, and aromatics you choose to use. It’s about how you layer flavors throughout the cooking process, focusing on what you want in the background or what you want the first bite to taste like. All that, along with using cooking techniques like caramelization, searing, flash frying, sweating etc. So, give this a try.
