Crispy-Skin Salmon on Potato Mushroom Salad

Description

This dish shows off the importance of contrasting textures and temperatures when assembling a dish. The hot, crisp-skinned salmon tops a warm, soft, earthy mushroom and potato salad; both are surrounded by a cool, tangy tomato citronette (vinaigrette made with citrus instead of vinegar). You’ll be amazed how delicious the skin of the salmon gets when cooked this crisp!
