    I'm printing this baby out...because I adore perfectly cooked (medium rare) salmon and I love your Asian-inspired light sauce components. That salmon will take center stage in this show for sure...and it's going to melt in my mouth...I can almost taste it now. I'll let you know how it turns out...can't wait. Thanks, Jim.... ;-)~
