A very light & fresh-tasting salad. (Hurray for no canned salmon or mayo!) I made this as written and served over lettuce. I did season my salmon with salt, pepper, tarragon and lemon juice before baking. I'm glad that I did because it needed some herbs and spices. I even could have used a little more... maybe garlic, dill and/or Old Bay? It's a lovely base recipe to season to taste. Thanx for sharing it!
