I thought that this really hid the taste of the salmon, which for some might be a good thing, but I love salmon, so not a good thing for me. The spice mix is a good balance of sweet, spicy, and salty; I wouldn't change it at all, but I would use less on the fish and do a different mix on the potatoes. DH found this a bit one dimensional, since everything tasted of the same spices. I liked it, but felt that using good salmon in this recipe was kind of a waste of money. If you have inexpensive fish, or want to hide the "fishy" taste, this may be the recipe for you.
