Who has the best salmon recipe?

[danderson]

My favorite salmon recipe is salmon loaf, take salmon left-overs all the scraps and bits left over from your salmon, usually cant eat it all the first time, break it up in pieces, add 2 eggs, cracker crumbs, a little cream or haf and half, salt and pepper, bake at 350 degrees for 45 minutes, serve with a cream sauce on top.

I never thought of a salmon loaf, sounds very ineresting!  Already thinking about adding shrimp to it for a seafood loaf.

olive oil, soy sauce, jack daniels(just a little)brown sugar, pepper. marinate for an hour and grill it on a cedar plank. tastes like hot smoked salmon. make sure to get the plank smoking really good before putting the fish on it.

I will have to try some of these, they sound good.  I normally dont eat salmon other then when I smoke it.  But I go salmon fishing so much I have to find a way to cook it I really like.  I know my friends and family dont want me to find one because I give them 90% of the salmon I catch now.  Thanks for all the post on this guys

Take a bottle of garlic caeser salad dressing and cover the fillet. BBQ for about 10-12 min.  Don't over cook.  Easiest, tastiest recipe out there

[Cuda]

So maddog, I have one that I figured out and it turns out really nice:

Take a salmon fillet and cover it in brown sugar. Next splash enough soy sauce on it to get a drop or two in every square inch. Sprinkle cracked pepper, sea salt, minced garlic (fresh) and dill over the fillet. Squeeze a half/whole lemon over the fillet if you like lemon. Let that rest in the fridge overnight. You will see that the seasoning/brine mix turns to liquid.

Soak a cedar plank for an hour or two and heat up your grill.

Once the fish is planking on the grill its time to mix up the sauce. I mix one part mayonaise with one part sour cream then add creamy horseradish (to taste and heat), then squeeze in a half lemon, then add a pile of fresh dill and a dash of salt. Mix this together and once the fish is done to whatever consistecy you like,  serve it up with the sauce! It is a combo of spicy and sweet that doesn't overpower the salmon taste. I have served this to probably 100 people and get rave reviews and recipe requests. Good luck and let me know what you think.

One more note: watch the cedar plank because they do burn!

So many great salmon recipes, now I wish I was better at catching them.

in order to do smoked salmon properly, you need a smoker capable of temperatures under 100 degrees. little chiefs and electrics dont necessarilly "smoke" salmon, in my oppinion they slow cook it with the aid of smoke aka hot smoked.

for my smoked salmon recipe, id reccomend chum as its really oily. as crazy as it may sound, king/coho is my least favorite to smoke. this method is by far one of the best ive had, this is how my grandfather and the indians did it

take 2-3 fish, and cut them up into about 3 inch strips, put it in a 5 gal. bucket with 4 lbs of brown sugar, 2 cups salt, 2 cups soy sauce, a tablespoon or so of garlic powder, chili powder and let soak for 1-3 days, rinse, dry with paper towel and let dry over night on oven racks in the fridge. smoke over alder for 16-30 hours at around 90 degrees. you want your fish about 3 feet above the chips to keep the temperature just right.

my favorite way to cook salmon a salmon dinner

get a fire going and get some good coals, and build it up.
take out an oven rack and make a bed of foil on the rack for fish. throw down some olive oil on the foil
split the fish, and put it on the foil, then season with salt/pepper, brown sugar, some chili powder, garlic powder, sliced lemons and onions, and just a little butter, and then when the coals are just right, put the rack over the fire

take 6-10 yellow potatoes (depending on how many people) poke em full of holes, and wrap in several layers of foil with lots of butter. then go toss em in the fire, (do this 20 before putting the fish on) 

farm fresh corn and a good green salad with a very large tankard of ice cold beer or a portugese green while called vhino verde (ice cold too)..................................

holy crap now IM hungry.....
