I love salmon, and this topping was the perfect addition. I made this salmon, spicy sweet potato "fries," and steamed broccoli, and had a deliciously satisfying dinner in about 30 minutes. Yum! I'll be making this recipe often! - 6/28/09

This looks great. I love having left over salmon for breakfast too. Had some today. I will try this one tomorrow since I have all the ingredients. I make one very similar using fat free yogurt and sour cream in equal parts. - 6/27/09

Good

I had individual salmon filets and no dill, I tried to improvise the recipe, next time will cut back on the sour cream and I am sure it will come out great. Was looking for new salmon recipes and when I find the right combination of ingredients for my family I am sure it will be a favorite. - 3/7/14

I made this tonight and was so disappointed. I thought I may have read the recipe wrong as I found the Dijon mustard way too overpowering. Had to scrape it off and use as much lemon juice as I had to cut the taste. It looked so good. The picture does not at all look like the food after cooking. - 3/19/13

Tried this recipe and the sour cream curdled. Tasted horrible.Scrapped the sauce off to save the salmon. Picture looks nothing like the results. - 3/16/13

This was so tasty! However, it does not look like the picture. It was a huge hit with my hubby, but he confessed his concern for its appearance after dinner(tastes much better than it looks!). Although I wouldn't make it for a "special" dinner, we will absolutely make this one on a regular basis! - 3/4/13

This was great! I didn't have Dijon mustard, so I used regular yellow mustard. I also minced sweet onions instead of scallions. I added appx 1 tsp capers (minced), and 1/2 tsp lemon juice. Turned out amazing!!

it was more of a paste than a sauce. the flavor was okay but i ended up scraping most of it off. the only thing i changed was i omitted the green onions as i didn't have any. i won't make again - 8/16/11

I didn't have scallions, so subbed with dried red onion and I used about 1/2 the dijon mustard. My husband loved it. I thought it was excellent as well. A nice change in how I usually prepare salmon. - 2/24/10

You have to take what I say with a grain of salt because I don't care for fish but am trying to add it to my diet. We tried this tonight and found it to be a little too tangy for our tastebuds! Will try it again but tweaked a little. Thanks! - 1/21/10
