Salmon Puff Pastry with Mushrooms and Capers

This dish is a visual and gastronomic showstopper. The puff pastry acts as a steam chamber that cooks the salmon in its own juices, while the sautéed mushrooms add a deep umami flavor. To balance the salmon's richness and the intensity of the capers without raising sodium levels, we will use Bonsalt , the perfect ally for enhancing the sea flavor without compromising cardiovascular health.

Technical Sheet

• Estimated time: 15 minutes of prep + 20 minutes in the oven

• Difficulty: ⭐⭐

• Servings: 2 people

Ingredients

• 1 rectangular sheet of puff pastry (preferably butter-based)

• 2 fresh salmon fillets (approx. 150g each), skinless and boneless

• 200g mixed mushrooms (button mushrooms, shiitake, or porcini)

• 1 tablespoon capers in vinegar (well drained)

• 1 small spring onion

• 1 egg (for brushing)

• Extra virgin olive oil

• Seasoning: Bonsalt and fresh dill (optional).

Step-by-Step Professional Preparation

1. Mushroom duxelles: Finely chop the spring onion and mushrooms. Sauté them in a pan with a little oil until they have released all their moisture and are golden. It is vital that the filling is dry so the puff pastry does not soften.

2. The master touch: Add the chopped capers to the mushroom sauté and season with Bonsalt 0% Sodium Castello. The potassium in Bonsalt intensifies the mushroom flavor and helps blend in the capers' acidity, achieving a perfect balance without the need to add common salt.

3. Fish preparation: Pat the salmon fillets dry with paper towels and season them lightly with Bonsalt and dill.

4. Assembly: Cut the puff pastry sheet into two large rectangles. In the center of each one, place a layer of the mushroom sauté, the salmon fillet on top, and cover with the remaining mushrooms.

5. Closing: Fold the puff pastry closed like a parcel, sealing the edges well with a fork. Make a couple of small cuts on top to let the steam escape. Brush with beaten egg.

6. Baking: Place in the preheated oven at 200°C for 18-20 minutes, until the puff pastry is golden and crisp.
