"My sister made this for the family last weekend -- oh my -- it was a feeding frenzy! Don't be frightened by the amount of garlic. The roasting makes it mellow and sweet. The sis served baked cherry tomatoes as a side. Yummy!"

  1. I had several roasted whole garlics and I love salmon so this recipe was the perfect supper tonight.
     
  2. Wonderful recipe. I served it to 8 friends - including one who "hates fish", and one who got sick on salmon years ago and who hasn't touched it since. Everyone loved it! Mild and savory - not too "fishy tasting".
     
  3. Excellent recipe! The roasted garlic really gave the salmon so much flavor. I halved the recipe. It took about 20 minutes, I had a thick one. Thanks! Im glad I picked you for the Pick a Chef game!!!!!
