20 minutes
Salmon steaks with grapes and burnt butter are an exquisite dish of European cuisine that combines the tenderness of fish, the sweetness of grapes, and caramel notes of burnt butter. Salmon fried in spiced flour gains a crispy crust, while grapes and almonds infused with the aroma of clarified butter create a rich flavor with nutty and fruity undertones. This combination of ingredients recalls classic culinary traditions of France, where the play of contrasts makes food particularly refined. The dish is perfect for special occasions when you want to treat yourself and loved ones to something unusual. It is best served with a light white wine or fresh vegetables to highlight its tenderness and complexity of flavor.

Melt butter in a saucepan, strain to remove white milk solids, then return the strained butter to the heat and heat until it darkens to a caramel color. Add chopped almonds and halved grapes to the butter. Remove from heat, let it infuse to absorb the flavors of almonds and grapes, and serve with roasted salmon.
