directions

Step 1

In a small bowl, mix all ingredients together.

Step 2

Preheat oven to 375ºF (190ºC).

Step 3

Marinate the salmon in the glaze for 10 minutes. Remove salmon from marinade and place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake at for 10-12 minutes.

Step 4

While the salmon is cooking, blanch the hops shoots and fiddlehead ferns in salted boiling water for 30 seconds. Remove and quickly place them in a warm sauté pan.

Step 5

Lightly sautée the vegetables with all the remaining ingredients, except for the salmon roe, for 30 more seconds. Season with salt to taste.

Step 6

Remove salmon from the oven and allow to rest for 3-4 minutes.

Step 7

To serve, arrange sautéed vegetables onto two plates and place the salmon on top. Use the lightly sautéed herbs and tomato to drizzle around the pate. Garnish the salmon with the maple-cured salmon roe.
