"Being from the North West, I think it's almost a requirement to like salmon which I certainly do. This is one of my favorite recipes for salmon, very easy to make."

This turned out really well. I even like it and I am not a real salmon lover. It didn't have that real fishy salmon taste to it at all. I recommend this one.
