I think I get my love for food and cooking from my mom, who was an amazing cook. She would start baking and freezing a month before Christmas in order to host our huge open house on Christmas afternoon. I watched and I learned...to this day I try not to procrastinate when it comes to entertaining. My cooking style is pretty much all over the place, although I'm definitely partial to Greek and Italian cuisine. Oh yes, throw a little Cajun in there too!

I didn’t have orange marmalade- substituted apricot jam. So much flavor.

I've never had salmon with orange marmalade before. Sounds very intriguing. And the picture looks appetising to me (burnt bits always seem appetising to me!).. A must try. However like LE BEC FIN suggested, I'd like to try it with fresh ginger (I'm also not a big fan of the dried version). How much do you suppose I should use?

The ginger is rather subtle in this..I'd start out with a teaspoon of fresh and then taste and adjust. Hope you enjoy!

This is such a tantalizing recipe pat, but one ingredient really concerns me. Do you really want to use dry ground ginger instead of fresh ginger? For me, ground ginger is only usable as a spice in baked goods and it has a very unappealing flavor in other foods. And ginger is such an important member in this team of flavor.

Certainly you can use fresh ginger, but I always have dried as opposed to fresh...trust me...it's great with the dried.

I just bought some orange and elderflower marmalade at Ikea over the weekend and I bet it will be great in this recipe!

Made this tonight and it was delicious. My marmalade was on the sweet side, so I left out the 2 T. sugar. We loved the orangey flavor - great idea!
