Hot-smoked salmon, unlike cured, is fully cooked.

If you like, serve this with whipped cream or an extra dollop of yogurt.

The frittata will be easier to remove from the skillet if it sits for a few minutes—the top will deflate and the edges will pull away from the pan.

Sorenson uses locally made House Spirits coffee liqueur, made with Stumptown beans, in this cold-brew cocktail. It's delicious, but hard to find outside of Oregon. In its place, use any other coffee liqueur.

You can dress this salad about half an hour in advance to no ill effect—the hearty greens can handle it.

These hot and sour pickles are great alongside the spread and frittata , and make a perfect garnish for the Bloody Beers .
