Salmon BLT Recipe - Cooking Index
I stole this idea from The Colony House Restaurant in Charleston, South Carolina many years ago. It's one of America's all-time favorite sandwiches made even better with the addition of freshly caught salmon. I like to serve this with cool summer melons and a glass of crisp dry white wine.
