The mass made of herbs and bread gives the salmon a wonderful taste.
Baked salmon is an easy dish. That’s a lot to ask for, as long as you remember not to cook the salmon dry. Dryness seems to be the most common problem with baked salmon.
Instead of the basic baked salmon, you can sometimes test new flavors. One good option is this one by Cristina Moborg crispy baked salmon. Its juju is an herbal bread coating, which goes perfectly on top of the salmon.
Heiroli’s entrepreneurial couple Cristina and Rolf Moborg are keen home cooks. A lot of good food is made in their kitchen.
Cristina Moring, who is half Italian, often glazes baked salmon with this Mediterranean mass made of herbs and bread. The Italian recipe gives salmon a good variety.
