    This was a fabulous recipe that was worth the extra effort to use fresh salmon. I squeezed a bit of fresh lemon just before serving, and it really gave it a nice added zip. Thanks, Ina! My sister Joanie has been a huge fan of yours for years, and she has passed her love of your recipes to me.

    I'm literally drooling while I'm thinking about this salad, it was THAT good. The raspberry vinegar is what makes it, to me. Some of the reviewers before said that it needed more of the herbs and oils/vinegar - I completely agree, I doubled them. Remember, you're accompanying a whole 2 pounds of salmon. And although I love cooked fresh salmon, its prices have gone through the roof lately - $20 per pound! - so I've had just as much success using good-quality canned salmon. Trader Joe's has great canned salmon that's reasonably priced.

    I took this salad, along with a grapefruit and avocado salad, some sliced crusty bread, and a bottle of wine on a picnic, and it was amazing!!

    Very good, just the right combo of sweet and tart. I followed the advice of a previous reviewer and used raspberry vinaigrette, turned out great. Served it on toasted bread with butter lettuce and a slice of tomato. :
