I chose to try this recipe because it has all of my favorite flavors: garlic, basil, horseradish and soy sauce. I was excited to find wild Sockeye salmon at our neighborhood grocery store (they don't always have it), which I marinated for almost two hours. As instructed, I made the sauce two hours ahead also to let the flavors meld. I wasn't surprised that the baked fish alone without the sauce had a wonderful flavor with the garlic, soy sauce and horseradish marinade. Of course, the creamy sauce was a delicious addition, like icing on the cake. Delicious and easy! I'm sure I'll make this often. - nannydeb

I am delighted that you all enjoyed it - especially that your 9 year old enjoyed it! Fish can be tough for children, but I find that salmon is well-tolerated, especially when it's grilled. My family loves this flavor combination as well. I think the horseradish, basil and soy are fabulous together!

This looks so tasty. I'm a huge fan of horseradish, basil and soy, each on their own, but have never thought to combine them. Yummmm!!! Looking forward to trying it soon. ;o)

My whole family loved this salmon! Even my 9 year old who eats salmon just to please us slathered on the sauce and ate it all up. We grilled the fish because it was such a nice night - this will be made again and again.
