Cooking Steps

Cook bulgur
1
  • Before starting, wash and dry all produce.
  • To a medium pot, add 3/4 cup (1 1/2 cups) water and 1/8 tsp (1/4 tsp) salt. Cover and bring to a boil over high. 
  • Once boiling, add bulgur. Cover, remove from heat and let stand for 15-16 min, until bulgur is tender and liquid is absorbed.
Pickle cabbage and  prep
2
  • To a small pot, add cabbage, vinegar, 2 tbsp (1/4 cup) water and 2 tsp (4 tsp) sugar. Season with salt. Bring to a simmer over medium-high. 
  • Once simmering, cook for 1-2 min, stirring often, until sugar dissolves.
  • Remove from heat. Transfer cabbage, including pickling liquid, to a large bowl. Place in the fridge to cool. 
  • Peel clementine, then separate into segments.
  • Roughly chop cilantro.
Toast sesame seeds with cashews
3
  • Heat a large non-stick pan over medium.
  • When hot, add sesame seeds and cashews to the dry pan. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Toast for 4-6 min, stirring often, until golden. (TIP: Keep your eye on them so they don't burn!) 
    Transfer to a plate.
Cook salmon
4
  • Reheat the same pan over medium-high.
  • While pan heats, pat salmon dry with paper towels. Season with Asian Sesame Spice Blend, salt and pepper.
  • When hot, add 1 tbsp oil, then add salmon. Pan-fry for 3-5 min per side, until salmon is browned and cooked through.** (NOTE: Don't crowd the pan; cook in 2 batches for 4 servings, using 1 tbsp oil per batch.) (TIP: Reduce heat to medium if salmon start to burn)
Make ginger sauce and assemble salad
5
  • While salmon cooks, to a medium bowl, add ginger sauce, 2 tbsp (1/4 cup) pickling liquid (from step 2) and 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil. Whisk to combine. (NOTE: This is your tangy ginger sauce.)
  • Drain and discard remaining liquid from cabbage.
  • To the bowl of cabbage, add spring mix, clementines, half the toasted cashews-sesame mix and 2 tbsp (1/4 cup) tangy ginger sauce. Toss to coat.
Finish and serve
6
  • Stir half the cilantro into bulgur.
  • Divide bulgur, and salad between plates.
  • Top with salmon.
  • Drizzle remaining tangy ginger sauce over top.
  • Sprinkle remaining cilantro and remaining cashew-sesame mix over top.

If you've opted to get salmon prep and cook in the same way the recipe instructs you to prep and cook tilapia. Increase pan frying time to 3-5 min per side, until browned and cooked through.**
