Method
 

Preparation
  1. Can I use frozen salmon for this recipe?Yes, you can use frozen salmon. Just be sure to thaw it properly in the fridge before cooking for best results.
  2. Can I substitute the heavy cream with something else?Yes, you can substitute the heavy cream with coconut cream for a dairy-free option or half-and-half for a lighter version.
  3. Can I make this dish ahead of time?While it’s best to serve the salmon immediately after cooking, you can prepare the sauce ahead of time and refrigerate it. Simply reheat the sauce and then add the salmon when ready to serve.
  4. How can I make the sauce thicker?If you want a thicker sauce, simply cook it for a bit longer to reduce it, or add a cornstarch slurry (1 tablespoon of cornstarch mixed with 1 tablespoon of water) to thicken the sauce.
  5. Can I add other vegetables to the sauce?Yes, you can add mushrooms, asparagus, or even peas to the sauce for added texture and flavor. Just be sure to sauté them before adding the cream to ensure they cook properly.
