1 onion, sliced thin
1 leek, sliced thin

I'm allergic to dill, so I substituted parsley in this recipe. It turned out just as delicious!

I followed the recipe exactly, but my salmon rillettes turned out too dry. I think I might have overcooked the salmon.

This was my first time making salmon rillettes, and it turned out great! I was worried it would be too fishy, but it wasn't at all. The lemon and dill really brighten up the flavor.
