"Michael Smith is a Canadian chef who encourages you to make his recipes your own. This recipe is supposed to have the horseradish in it, but some people don't like the heat so I made it optional. I like the horseradish in it. Michaeld intended this to be served with Recipe #409358. Enjoy!"

I loved the potato encrusting technique used here! The potatoes adhered to the salmon very well. I really enjoyed the horseradish (but would probably halve the amount next time) flavor and bite. This was a delicious way to enjoy salmon! Thank you!

This was fantastic! I used the optional horseradish and I'm glad I did. This'll be going into my favorites collection.
