What to serve with salmon at Christmas
Have you been wondering what to serve with salmon at Christmas? Elevate your seasonal dishes by pairing them with sides and sauces that allow the salmon flavour profile to shine.
Citrus zest
Bright, zesty flavours such as orange or lemon can add a refreshing element to a richer dish.
Herbs
Fresh herbs like dill, thyme or rosemary work well. Try serving your salmon fillets with a herb crust or herb-infused butter sauce.
Flavoured butter
A flavoured butter can really add some decadence and bring out the flavours of salmon fillets, especially if they contain some citrus or garlic. If that sounds tasty, why not try one of our easy butter recipes.
Cranberry
Not just for turkey. The tartness of cranberry pairs well with the richness of salmon for a great festive twist.
Roasted vegetables
Simple, yet effective. Brussels sprouts, sweet potatoes, or asparagus provide a hearty and colourful accompaniment to your salmon fillets.
Champagne or sparkling wine
To drink, the effervescence of both can cleanse the palate between bites and add the necessary celebratory touch. They are especially good when paired with smoked salmon.
