I enjoyed the way the flavors of thyme, mushroom, and salmon worked together. Onion & garlic flavor intensity is determined by the amount of muddling done how much lemon juice is added how long it's sauteed before mixing into butter/flour roux. Works best with fresh mushrooms! I substituted only non-fat milk (reduced amount) and mozzerella cheese, which brought the caloric count down significantly. This is a dish to make for company!
