From the kitchen
The sauce is the dish. Blend it early and let it rest so the herbs relax and the anchovy dissolves into the yogurt.

Story so far
The sauce is the dish. Blend it early and let it rest so the herbs relax and the anchovy dissolves into the yogurt. Pat the salmon dry and salt the skin before the pan; the skin crisps, the inside stays translucent.
