- Fold 1-inch border over filling, fold each side over and roll up. Place, seam side down, on greased baking sheet. Brush with butter. Repeat with remaining ingredients to form 4 packages. Bake in preheated 425 degree oven for 15 to 20 minutes or until golden.
- Meanwhile, in saucepan, boil vinegar, wine, shallots, salt and pepper for 5 minutes or until reduced to 2 tablespoons. Reduce heat to low. Vigorously whisk in butter, a few cubes at a time, until thickened and smooth. Stir in parsley. Serve with salmon packages.

Steps:
- FOR THE RICE: In saucepan, melt butter over medium heat; cook onion and mushrooms, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes or until softened. Add stock, water, salt and pepper; bring to boil.

In saucepan, cook spinach, with just the water clinging to leaves, over medium heat for 8 minutes or until wilted; drain in sieve, pressing out moisture. Chop; toss with lemon juice and nutmeg. Cut salmon crosswise into 4 pieces. Separate some skin from flesh. Holding skin, insert knife at 45 degree angle; slide along to remove fillet.
- Lay 1 sheet of phyllo on work surface, keeping remaining phyllo covered with plastic wrap and damp towel to prevent drying out. Brush with about 2 teaspoons of the butter. Place second sheet on top; brush with butter.

Tips:
- For the perfect strudel dough, use a combination of all-purpose flour and bread flour. The all-purpose flour will give the dough structure, while the bread flour will give it elasticity and chewiness.
- When rolling out the dough, be sure to do so on a lightly floured surface. This will prevent the dough from sticking and tearing.
- To make sure the strudels are cooked evenly, bake them in a preheated oven. The ideal temperature is 400°F (200°C).
- For a golden brown crust, brush the strudels with melted butter before baking.
- Let the strudels cool slightly before serving. This will make them easier to cut and handle.
Conclusion:
The Canadian salmon strudels are a delicious and elegant dish that is perfect for any occasion. Made with fresh salmon, creamy cheese, and a variety of vegetables, these strudels are sure to impress your guests. With a few simple tips, you can easily make these strudels at home and enjoy a taste of Canada in your own kitchen.
