QUICK TRICK
No need to cook. Quick-marinate
vegetables for a hearty fresh
salad. Slice the vegetables thin so
they’ll need only 10 minutes to
soak up the flavor—enough time
to set the table or slice bread.
Try it with shredded cooked
chicken or drained canned beans
in place of the smoked salmon.

Lax-style salmon is cured by brining and
then smoked, giving it a softer texture and
brighter color—it almost looks raw, but it is
fully cooked. Any smoked salmon will work.
