Recipe Questions
- → How do I prevent salmon from overcooking?
Monitor the salmon closely during baking and remove it when just opaque. Broil briefly for crispness without drying.
- → Can other vegetables be used?
Yes, swap in zucchini, asparagus, or sweet potatoes for variety and adjust roasting times as needed.
- → What herbs work besides dill?
Try fresh basil, tarragon, or cilantro for different flavor profiles while keeping the dish vibrant and aromatic.
- → Is parchment paper necessary?
Parchment paper helps prevent sticking and reduces cleanup, but lightly oiling the pan also works well.
- → How do I know if vegetables are cooked?
Vegetables should be tender when pierced with a fork and show golden edges for maximum flavor and texture.
- → Which wines pair well?
Sauvignon Blanc or Pinot Grigio complement the fresh herbs and salmon perfectly for a bright, refreshing pairing.
