Introduction
Recipe courtesy of Emeril Lagasse. Fresh Food FastEmeril uses smoked salmon which I love but, it has a high sodium content so I used salmon that I had poached. I also reduced the amount of salt when calculating this recipe and added capers. I also used .5 tablespoons of Honey instead of sugar when calculating this recipe. Recipe courtesy of Emeril Lagasse.
