The name, vodka, comes from the Russian phrase zhiznennaia voda, or "water of life". It can be made from everything from potatoes to beets. It's considered to be fairly flavorless which makes it a great liquor for mixed drinks.

2-5 hrs
ingredients
1 1/2 pound baby greens
Salmon
8 fillets salmon (4-5 ounce portions)
2 cups pecans
1 tablespoon garlic
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil
Mango Salsa
2 ripe mangoes, skinned and cubed
1/2 cup red onions, small diced
1 teaspoon orange zest
1 finely diced poblano pepper
1 diced red bell pepper
1 shot orange juice
1 shot red wine vinegar
1 bunch chopped cilantro
directions
For Salmon: Grind pecans in to a coarse meal. Add all ingredients together. Dip salmon fillets in olive oil and roll in pecan crumb mixture.
Heat a large fry pan and lightly saute the salmon on one side. Turn onto a sheet pan and roast fish in a 450 degrees F oven for 4-5 minutes or until done to taste.
For Mango Salsa: Mix all ingredients together and let sit for 2 hours.
For Greens: Toss greens in 1 teaspoon each of olive oil and balsalmic vinegar. Add pinch of salt.
Place greens on each plate. Top with salmon, then top with salsa and serve.
Flip the fish about halfway through baking. Check that there's still wine in the dish, as this keeps it from drying out.
Fish is done when skin is loose to the touch and meat in the thickest part has turned from translucent to pink or white, and is slightly flaky.
Serve with rice.
