Spring memory: salmon and mustard
May 3rd, 2008
The first time I tasted smoked salmon and mustard together—tossed with fresh fettuccine in a simple, delicious pasta— I was sitting inside an almost empty café in Paris, looking out on the Seine from the Quai d’Orsay.
This morning, when potatoes, canned salmon, asparagus and a few pantry items were about all I had on hand, I rekindled that memory with a similarly flavored potato salad.

I had a half head of green cabbage, a couple of bratwursts and some leftover fingerling potato salad (which I’d made in the wake of last week’s salmon and Yukon Gold salad), and I didn’t feel like spending a long time in the kitchen (mostly because I was having trouble standing up).

this was fantastic! I’d been craving it since you posted, but only just made it this weekend. used fresh cooked salmon instead of canned as the canned stuff just doesn’t quite do it for me and … wow. super-delish. thanks for another great recipe.
