"As simple and delicious as it gets! Use the stuffing as listed below, use the stuffing of your choice, or cook the fish without it altogether. If you prefer, two thick slices of salmon may be cooked in this same manner. From the Western chapter of the United States Regional Cookbook, Culinary Arts Institute of Chicago, 1947."
