I found the sauce incredibly sweet and also an abundance of it. The salmon was great and I love the whole concept but a pound of sugar? It seemed excessive when I was making it but was hopeful that it would balance itself out. This was not tested b/c Emeril is off of the show, but I do believe with a little test kitchen re-vamping this could be a five star dish.
