This baked salmon in foil is a delicious recipe. I bought a large piece of wild salmon and made this when we had guests. Very little prep, and the fish came out wonderfully. If your salmon fillet is very thick, it may take longer to bake.

Just like bakery sourdough bread — if not better! It's crusty, chewy, and tangy. You'll be shocked at how simple it is to create such a professional loaf at home. Baking inside a Dutch oven (set in your kitchen oven) does an excellent job of simulating the effects of a professional bread oven.
