Recipe

Chilled Salmon with Dijon Dipping Sauce

This dish comes from my good friend Anita. It's part her invention, part adaptation from Spice and Spirit, the fabulous Lubavitch Women's Cookbook by Esther Blau, Tzirrel Deitsch and Cherna Light. Make it a duet of dipping sauces when you whip up a Wasabi Scallion Sauce to go with you Dijon Sauce. Combine one large bunch of scallions (use only the green part), 1 cup light mayonnaise, the juice of 1 lemon and 1/8 teaspoon wasabi powder. Blend or process until creamy and smooth. Refrigerate overnight to soften the bite.
