I’ve always been a fan of Breton crackers. They are perfect for entertaining because they are bigger than most crackers and more sturdy, so they are perfect for dipping.
Now, I’m even more excited about them because they have two new gluten free varieties – Breton Gluten Free Original with Flax and Breton Gluten Free Herb and Garlic. I love having another gluten-free option to use when I’m creating recipes that call for crackers or bread crumbs.
Last year, my kids went fishing in Alaska with their dad. They brought home a freezer full of wild Alaskan Salmon, Halibut, and Rockfish. I was in heaven. I pulled the last pack of Salmon out of my freezer this morning to use for this recipe. I was aiming for something simple and easy to put together, yet fancy enough for entertaining. I was thrilled with the result. The savory combination of the lemon, herb, and garlic flavors was so delicious!
