Instructions
Step 1
Prepare your dining room. Lay a beautiful tablecloth on the table, put the most beautiful and expensive cutlery. Light candles, decorate the room with flowers, and put on a new dress. Don't spend a few hours in the kitchen. Dinner for two should be light and inspire love exploits, not sleep with a full stomach.
Step 2
Aperitif
Offer your loved one a drink while your main course finishes in the oven. Combine gin, dry vermouth, and plenty of ice in a shaker or blender. Pour the resulting cocktail into a glass and garnish with a lemon wedge.
Step 3
"Intriga" salad
Wash the herbs. Tear off the tender parts of the leaves from the arugula, and discard the stems themselves. Tear the arugula leaves with your hands, and finely chop the parsley and dill.
Step 4
Pour boiling water over the shrimp for half a minute, then drain and peel the shrimp.
Step 5
Combine olive oil, balsamic vinegar, and apricot syrup. Whisk the mixture with a whisk or blender. Pour the resulting sauce over the herbs and stir.
Step 6
Place the shrimp on top of the salad and sprinkle the chopped almonds over the dish. The salad is very tender and light. It stimulates the appetite well, and not only gastronomic.
Step 7
Main dish "Pisces Constellation"
Combine olive oil, thyme, salt and ground pepper. Cut the tomatoes into rings. Dip each tomato slice into the resulting sauce.
Step 8
Place the foil in a baking dish and place the tomato rings on top of it. Place the salmon slices on top. Cut the lemon into thin half rings and place on the sides of the fish.
Step 9
Preheat oven to 250 degrees. Place the fish in the oven and bake for about 30 minutes. Divide the cooked salmon into bowls and sprinkle with chopped dill on top.
Step 10
Dessert "Snow Strawberry"
Wash the strawberries, pat dry, place on waffles and sprinkle with powdered sugar on top. Chill the whites in the refrigerator, then whisk them with the powdered sugar until stiff. Place the whipped egg whites on top of the strawberries. Heat the oven to 200 degrees and put the dessert there for 3-4 minutes to brown the whites. Dessert is ready.
