April 5, 2017 at 5:36 pmI have had frozen pecan salmon before so I thought this would be great. Skin was soggy. Breading did not stick at all to the milk or fish. Unfortunately this was a dud for me. Thanks anyway.

July 1, 2017 at 5:19 pmI am not a member of Costco, but a member of Sam’s. ALL of Sam’s salmon is farm-raised in the Far East and I refuse to buy that stuff. If Costco’s salmon is wild caught, I will switch my membership.
This recipe looks fabulous and I plan to use it for a special little dinner next week.
Thanks for taking the time to post it.
