Hungry eye 116 p o r t l a n d monthly magazine DRIFT WITH THE SEASONS W hat’s the secret of fresh sea- food? Timing. “I moved here almost three years ago and learned very quickly the ephemerality of the growing season and bounty of warmer weather seafood,” says chef Ben Jackson at Drifters Wife. “I like to pair things happen- ing at the same time, land or sea. And I like the odd bits…say, marinated bluefish with cucumbers and mint, or smoked macker- el with potatoes and ramp remoulade. We smoke the fish in-house and cure the small- er fish for use in vinaigrettes and whatnot. We save other fish scraps, belly and trim, to poach in olive oil and make mayo.” Jackson is a chef who can make you love turnips, so trust him with that fish mayo. Recently, Drifter’s Wife has offered “steamer clams with garlic scapes and rye bread; halibut with nettle broth and peri- winkles; and frisee lettuce w ith smoked alewife vinaigrette and soft egg. Everything deserves a chance to shine.” n
