I visited good friends for dinner yesterday and was served this most delicious but simple supper for summer. My friend didn’t have any Cornichons so prepared the dish using capers instead, and this worked very well. The recipe is from Diana Henry’s ” From the Oven to the Table”, one of my go to cookbooks.

A great supper from ” Cook Simple2 by Diana Henry. The salmon caviar makes it special, but is expensive so can be omitted. If you like you can add cooked peas or little spears of asparagus when in season. You can use smoked trout instead of salmon, or a mixture of smoked and fresh cooked salmon.
This classic sauce can also be served with whole baked salmon or roast chicken. The recipe is from Diana Henry’s ” Cook Simple”.
