For a richer flavor, consider using homemade mayonnaise. Adjust the amount of dill to your liking. Fresh dill can also be used; use about 1 tablespoon, chopped. If your salmon fillets have skin on, you can crisp the skin by broiling the salmon for the last 2-3 minutes of cooking. Watch carefully to prevent burning. The creamy sauce also pairs well with other types of fish, such as cod or halibut. This dish can be prepared ahead of time. Assemble the salmon fillets on the baking sheet and store them in the refrigerator until ready to bake. Add a few minutes to the cooking time if baking from cold.

Mar 6, 2025I was skeptical about the mayonnaise, but it created the most delicious crust on the salmon. I added a bit of lemon zest to the sauce for extra zing. Will definitely make again!

Jul 28, 2022I have made this recipe several times now and it is always a hit! I like to use sockeye salmon for its rich flavor. Don't skip the fresh basil; it adds a lovely aroma.
