You are right. This is my favorite way to make salmon, but I omitted the cheese and the final broiling. It just doesn't need it. I use a squeeze of fresh lemon over the fish when done. It came out very moist and flavorful. Great recipe Sue.

    This has GOT to be my new favorite way of making salmon! While my hubbie has never been a big fish eater (would much rather go for steak and taters) this is a 5 star in his book! I left the onions out and used stone ground mustard (more for taste and just to use what I had in the fridge). I didn't use as much cheese as called for, I didn't want to smother the flavor of the sour cream coating. One discovery, that mix of sour cream with the other ingredients makes a MEAN chip (in my case chili cheez-it) dip. If doing in a toaster oven I found that I needed to bake just a bit longer (added 10 min to the unfrozen time). This is a KEEPER!

    I was surprised how good this tasted. Usually I don't like creamy sauce on fish, but I thought I'd take a chance and I'm glad I did. I added only half the mustard (Dijon) which was an "elegant sufficiency" for my taste buds. I served it with steamed rice. I will make this frequently as it's so easy (and I eat so much salmon).

    Nice twist to the usual salmon. I liked the cheese "crust" on top. I made this 4 servings and used extra coarse-ground mustard. Next time I would use less mayonnaise.

    My method now is to ask DH how many stars a new recipe deserves. He gave this a resounding 5! I also skipped the cheese; it seemed like gilding the lily, plus I have that Italian thing where we don't eat fish and cheese together. It was great just as is! I had been cooking salmon and serving a similar sauce on the side, made with sour cream, dill and mustard. This was even better, because it didn't stink up the house when it was cooked! A great recipe, thanks!

    Superb! The salmon was delicious--even my ds that doesn't like fish ate every last bit of his piece. One change to the recipe I made was I used ground mustard (1 tsp) instead of prepared mustard, because I was out of wet mustard and the second change I made to the recipe was cooking the fish at 425-degrees so I could cook potatoes in the oven with the fish--ofcourse we also had to cook the fish for close to an hour (our fish was 3-inches thick). Thanks SueJ for posting this keeper recipe.

    One of the best salmon recipes I have ever tried, so tasty, gets the taste buds going into overdrive and so easy to make. A weekly event I think.

    I really enjoyed this recipe. It was fancy, but easy. I didn't believe the salmon was cooked at the given time, and cooked it longer, shouldn't have!! I added the cheese at the end and thought it added a lot. Excellent!

    The topping seemed to over power the fish a bit.

    The topping with the dill seemed to over power the fish. I may try this again but cut back on the dill. Thanks for posting
