Loaves & Fishes Fish Salad image

Passed down from generation to generation, this salad is based on one made by Jon Snow, who owned a fish store in Sagaponack called Loaves & Fishes. Ina Garten's friend bought the shop in the mid 1970's and turned it into a specialty food store and then sold it to a friend. But they all kept making Jon Snow's delicious fish salad. So here it is for you to enjoy too!

This salad is a great way to use up leftover fish. I had some grilled salmon that I flaked and added to the salad, and it was delicious.
