Hello and welcome to TGIF Scoop! You are probably up to your neck in forms and paperwork as the April 15th deadline approaches. Maybe you have already completed your taxes, paid your taxes or are awaiting your refund. Either way now is a good time to revisit the extended and expanded Home Buyer's Tax Credit. Here is the real story...
2010 should be one of the best years in history for home buying opportunities due to historic low interest rates, foreclosure and short sales, the tax credit and the large inventory to choose from. Call us, use our local knowledge and experience to help guide you. Visit www.cbbaker.com for up the minute MLS listings of homes in our tri-county area.

Salmon Burger with Wasabi
• 2 tablespoon(s) reduced-sodium soy sauce
• 1 1/2 teaspoon(s) wasabi powder (see Note)
• 1/2 teaspoon(s) honey
• 1 pound(s) salmon fillet, skinned (see Tip)
• 2 scallions, finely chopped
• 1 egg, lightly beaten
• 2 tablespoon(s) minced peeled fresh ginger
• 1 teaspoon(s) toasted sesame oil
________________________________________
Directions
1. Whisk soy sauce, wasabi powder and honey in a small bowl until smooth. Set aside.
2. With a large chef's knife, chop salmon using quick, even, straight-up-and-down motions (do not rock the knife through the fish or it will turn mushy). Continue chopping, rotating the knife, until you have a mass of roughly 1/4-inch pieces. Transfer to a large bowl. Add scallions, egg, ginger and oil; stir to combine. Form the mixture into 4 patties. The mixture will be moist and loose, but holds together nicely once the first side is cooked.
3. Coat a large nonstick skillet with cooking spray and heat over medium heat for 1 minute. Add the patties and cook for 4 minutes. Turn and continue to cook until firm and fragrant, about 3 minutes. Spoon the reserved wasabi glaze evenly over the burgers and cook for 15 seconds more. Serve immediately.
