Tips and tricks

Sear the salmon over high heat for just a couple of minutes per side; it will finish cooking gently in the sauce.

Whisk the oat flour thoroughly into the plant-based milk so your sauce stays completely smooth.

Serve it alongside rice, quinoa, or steamed veggies to soak up every drop of that sauce.
