OUR recipe tips

Cooking salmon

Don't overcook: Salmon is best when it remains slightly pink throughout. Overcooking makes it dry.
Use a hot frying pan: this ensures a golden, flavorful crust.
Skin-side first: If your salmon is skin-on, start cooking skin-side up to crisp it up.

A tastier sauce

Add cheese: A little Parmesan or fresh cheese such as Boursin to the cream for even more creaminess.
Play with herbs: Dill, tarragon or chives add a delightful spice to the cream.
Add lemon zest: For a touch of freshness and pep.
A little mustard: A teaspoon of wholegrain mustard gives a subtle, delicious taste.

Deglaze for more flavour

White wine or lemon? If you don't have white wine, lemon juice works very well to balance the fat of the cream.
Gourmet option: Deglaze with a dash of cognac or whisky for a deeper taste.

Perfect accompaniments

Steamed vegetables: Asparagus, green beans or zucchini for a light dish.
Fresh pasta or tagliatelle: The sauce blends in perfectly.
Basmati or wild rice: Ideal for absorbing the creamy sauce.

These tips will make your creamed salmon even more delicious!
