re: salmon in the oven question

If you have cedar planks and soak them well, you can use them inside at a low temp and not smoke up your house. It gives a more subtle flavor than the grill, obviously, but it's still there. I'll season salmon then top with lemon juice. green onion, creole mustard, and lime ponzu sauce (I know that sounds weird w/ the creole mustard, but it works) and go at 300 or so for 10-15 minutes on the planks, depending on how thick the fish is, trying to shoot for med-rare/medium. I've converted some non-salmon lovers with that.
