The Scandinavians have long knows that a piquant dill sauce brings out the best in salmon's delicately oily orange flesh. Buy the freshest fish available; if it's well-wrapped, it can be kept in the coldest part of the fridge for three days at the most.

To store without freezing, place the wrapped fish on a bowl of ice in the fridge, and remember that sooner rather than later should be your rule of thumb when it comes to fresh fish. Buy steaks no thicker than 1.5 inches, which will cook through quickly. This recipe also works very well with any white fish fillets.
