Steps:
- For the salad: Quarter the cucumber, lengthwise, and remove the seeds, but leave on the skin. Thinly slice the cucumbers and mix with the salt in a colander. Set in the sink for about 1 hour to drain. Meanwhile, place the yogurt in a coffee filter-lined strainer and set over a bowl to drain, about 1 hour.
- Rinse the cucumbers with cold, running water. Press down on the cucumbers to extract as much liquid as possible and pat dry. Toss the cucumbers with the drained yogurt, dill, sugar, orange zest, cayenne, and season with pepper, to taste.
- Preheat the oven to 275 degrees F.
- Cut the salmon lengthwise and then crosswise to make 4 equal squares of fish. Lightly sprinkle the salmon all over with a pinch of turmeric and rub in slightly to coat evenly. Season salmon with salt and pepper and place on a very lightly oiled oven-proof nonstick pan. Roast the salmon, turning the pieces carefully with a spatula after about 10 minutes, until just cooked through, about 20 minutes in all. (Slow-roasted salmon looks bright orange when done, and will be luscious in the center.) To serve, divide the cucumbers between 4 plates, top with the salmon and garnish with dill fronds.

HONEY SOY GLAZED SALMON RECIPE BY TASTY
Two words: honey salmon! Sure, it takes a tiny bit of prep work, but once you marinate your salmon, you won't be able to go back. A simple mix of honey, soy sauce, garlic, and ginger coats and flavors your fish for 30 minutes before you throw it on the pan until the outside is perfectly crispy. Once that's done, you heat up and reduce some extra marinade to make a thick, to-die-for glaze to pour over your filet. Serve with your favorite veggies or rice and enjoy!

Steps:
- Place salmon in a sealable bag or medium bowl.
- In a small bowl or measuring cup, mix marinade ingredients.
- Pour half of the marinade on the salmon. Save the other half for later.
- Let the salmon marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
- In a medium pan, heat oil. Add salmon to the pan, but discard the used marinade. Cook salmon on one side for about 2-3 minutes, then flip over and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes.
- Remove salmon from pan. Pour in remaining marinade and reduce.
- Serve the salmon with sauce and a side of veggies. We used broccoli.
- Enjoy!

SOY GLAZED SALMON WITH CUCUMBER AVOCADO SALAD
Another delicious recipe from Food Network Magazine July/Aug. 2012 edition. The recipe called for 4 salmon filets, but I only did 2 and still made the salad as is, to make a more substantial meal for my husband and I. Of course you can always make 4 portions if you like.

Tips:
- Mise en place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all your ingredients and tools ready. This will help you stay organized and avoid scrambling later on.
- Choose the right salmon: Look for salmon that is wild-caught and sustainably sourced. Fresh salmon should have a bright, vibrant color and a mild, fresh smell.
- Cook the salmon to perfection: Salmon is a delicate fish, so it's important not to overcook it. The best way to cook salmon is to bake it in the oven at a high temperature for a short period of time.
- Make the soy glaze ahead of time: The soy glaze can be made up to 3 days in advance. This will save you time when you're ready to cook the salmon.
- Use fresh, high-quality ingredients: The fresher your ingredients, the better your salad will taste. Look for crisp cucumbers, ripe avocados, and flavorful herbs.
- Don't overdress the salad: A light dressing is all you need to enhance the flavors of the salad without overpowering them.
Conclusion:
Soy-glazed salmon with cucumber avocado salad is a delicious and healthy meal that is perfect for any occasion. The salmon is cooked to perfection and the soy glaze adds a wonderful flavor. The salad is light and refreshing, and it complements the salmon perfectly. This dish is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
