Canadian Salmon Strudels, Few things say Canadian more readily than salmon and wild rice Combined with flaky phyllo pastry, earthy mushrooms and tender spinach, the patriotic duo is transformed into a heavenly package designed specifically for entertaining occasions This is a dynamite entre for special dinners, always earning high praise and well satisfied appetites The strudels can be assembled up to four hours ahead , My daughter requested this as her last meal before returning back to college I actually made five servings from the recipe and the servings were still large I found I had to add a lot more liquid to the rice than what was listed I too was leary about the sauce, but the flavor is an amazing compIiment to the dish I doubled the recipe for the sauce and my family didn’t leave much left Everybody’s plates were clean and we were full Great recipe My first time working with phyllo dough My first couple were messy but I got the hang of it after that The flavor was fantastic , This was sooo good My BF at two in one sitting and so did the neighbor BF has been raving about it to his friends and asked me to print the recipe to give out I was worried that he wouldn’t like the sauce but he said it was the best part and wants me to make it for a saefood dipping sauce I would say the prep takes longer than 20 min but it was well worth the effort Thanks Olga

Tip: Remove All the Pin Bones from the Salmon Before Separating the Skin from the Flesh. Do This by Running the Straight, Dull Edge of a Knife Across Flesh Side of Fillet. This Raises the Pin Bones, Making Them Easy to Extract With Tweezers. |
