    Fresh, easy and very classic. And you made it very glamorous too. I had to smile when I read your story of the butcher. Often I will ask the green grocer if he has a vegetable or parsley that looks better “because I’m going to use it in a photo.” It works like a charm and they always hustle around to find a really nice what-ever I’ve asked for. It also helps that they know me too. Now I will try it with the fish monger.

      My green grocer recognizes me now. I ask what should I have this week. He now tells me a couple things that are really good, but now he even says what to stay away from. This salmon was delicious. The photos should have been better, but I got a phone call at a critical time. I hope everyone will forgive my lack of photo skills and try this. I also love the easy cleanup. Thanks Sam for stopping by.

    This is a perfect meal for my dysfunctional kitchen. No clean-up. I like that. But it also looks delicious. I will try it soon. I never thought to pull the photo shot card with my butcher. Great idea! We bloggers could get the very best cuts.

      Cleanup is a breeze. Also, when I reread my post it sounded a little blunt. I did ask, but nicer than it sounded. For the most part they do not know what a blogger is, but they do understand I need a good photo. Thanks for stopping by. I so enjoy your food.

      Chris, you always make me laugh. I was not exactly flirting when I asked if his fish smelled? 🙂 But, he took it in great stride.

      I liked the idea of pasta and fish all in one and easy cleanup to boot.

      I want to take photos like Scott. Maybe someday….

    Such a great recipe! Anything en papillote is fun (dramatic presentation, if nothing else), but I think fish is the best choice. Salmon is great, and I like halibut too. Good post — thanks.

    You have the pronunciation perfect!!
    I love en papillotte dishes..
    You must also try Chris’ salmon sauce..we were having salmon last night and I tried it..:)
    Flirting? What is that again?:)
    I do have a feeling you are not too old:)
    A small insignificant footnote..I could not wait to get my hands on Israeli couscous and finally did..
    Do you love it?
    Never again for me..
    It’s just pasta..not like a couscous at all..Loved the big dry pearls..and then..the letdown:(

    You?

      Yes, en papillotte. I would just love to try Chris’ salmon sauce, but it has soy sauce. I have soy-sensitivity or I would be making it tonight. I have made several of her recipes and each were fabulous – she is fabulous. If you don’t like Israeli couscous give another small pasta a chance. The oil, lemon juice and Dijon all make a sauce with the zucchini and carrot make a great accompaniment -My opinion:)

    You’ve made both, the fish monger and the salmon, very proud (the salmon certainly looks delicious baked in paper).
    I like how gently fish cooks when done en papillote. As far as salmon though, it’s been some time since I’ve had really good salmon. I might just have to catch it myself 🙂

    Madonna, how utterly mouthwatering. I am a real salmon fan, and whilst I’ve done a few dishes en papillote, I haven’t thought to cook a salmon fillet this way. What wonderful inspiration, and stunning photos…yummmm!!!

      It is remarkably easy. The only thing you need to worry about is to be sure it is folded tightly so the steam stays in. I hope you will give it a try – it is dinner in a bag.

    Printed off this recipe…love salmon…this recipe looks so delicious and I like “easy peasy”. I must admit I have a little difficulty with timing and knowing when it’s done. I’ve tried tuna and salmon that was to “raw” for my taste. But then again, I don’t like it dry either~~~

      I hope you will give it a try. The rule of thumb is 10 minutes per inch thickness of fish. I had the fishmonger trim it so it was all the same thickness. If you think it is not quiet done give it a few more minutes. Mine was just right at 10 minutes.
