You can also put a light coating of mayonnaise on it. Season and lemon juice as you like.

I like it with lemon butter.

Sounds like something a southerner would do.

Hmm. I happen to live in Texas but I am most definitely not a "southerner." I actually don't know where the idea came from, but my dad grew up in Milwaukee and Boston and he does this on the grill. The key words are light coating. Globs would be nasty and probably very southern.

Salmon is quickly becoming the new haddock...

...over-farmed, commericalized, bastardized version of what it once was.

It's rare to get a real good salmon anymore. I mean, when I see salmon on bar food menus, it's over.

I got some dover sole last week. Much better.

You don't have to cook salmon. It's already cooked. Just open the can and eat it.

Haha... so true. Though it still tastes pretty good heated up. Sometimes I do a stir-fry thing with some vegetables for a change of pace.

My curiosity is piqued. Recipe please.

I am guessing that you stuff it with cooked bacon, and whats the cream mixture?

Given that the best regional American cuisine is Southern (Tex-Mex, Creole, Cajun, barbecue etc), this statement is just ignorant.

Slice some bacon, cut some onions and get a bag of frozen cut up spinach, defrost it and drain it well. Cook the bacon so it's crunchy. In the same pan, add the onions and some garlic and cook it in the bacon fat. When it's soft, deglaze it with sherry and reduce. Add a shellfish stock of some sort (if you don't have stock, (insert-whatever) base is available in supermarkets) and reduce it. Add heavy cream to give it some body.

Once it's reduced, mix in the frozen spinach.


That's the cream mixture. You can do a lot with that, you can use it for chicken (sort of like a cordon bleu), do a baked oyster of some kind...
