This salmon is moist delicious and full of flavor. It is perfect for the Feast of Saint Andrew.
Today is the Feast of Saint Andrew. He was born in Bethsaida on the Sea of Galilee. He was Simon Peters brother and was in the boat when Jesus preached to the multitudes. When Andrew went along the streets of Galilee speaking the good news he soon became a martyr. He was crucified like Christ but was bound and not nailed. It was in the shape of an X called a saltier. That X shape is now commonly referred to as Saint Andrews Cross.
Saint Andrew is the patron saint of Fisherman and Singers. In honor of his feast day I made Barbecue Salmon.
