SALMON EN PAPILLOTE
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
- Cut two 15-by-24-inch pieces of parchment. Fold each in half crosswise like a book, then cut each into a heart shape. Open the hearts and place on a rimmed baking sheet.
- In a medium bowl, stir to combine the olives, capers, shallot, bell pepper, leeks and garlic. Add the vinegar and 1 tablespoon of the olive oil; stir to coat. Season lightly with salt and pepper--the capers and olives add their own saltiness to the mixture.
- Season both sides of each salmon fillet with salt and pepper. Place 1 fillet near the fold of each parchment heart. Drizzle each fillet with 1 tablespoon each olive oil and sambuca. Place 1 bay leaf on each fillet then top evenly with the olive mixture.
- Fold the halves of each heart together, crimping along the edge from top to bottom. When you reach the pointed end, twist it to shut each packet.
- Bake the packets on the baking sheet until they are slightly puffed and the salmon is cooked, 13 to 15 minutes. Remove from the oven, place on plates and carefully cut open the packets at the table.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Rinse salmon fillets in cold water, place onto a plate, and squeeze a lemon over the salmon. Sprinkle fillets with salt and black pepper.
- Fold a piece of parchment paper in half crosswise, and center a salmon fillet on one side of the paper. Place 1 or 2 lemon slices on top of the salmon, and surround with 2 cut-up asparagus spears. Sprinkle 2 tablespoons of green onion over the lemon slices, and fold the parchment paper over the salmon. Fold the edges of the paper over several times, all around the open edges, to seal the salmon into a parchment paper envelope. (Do not tape the parchment paper closed.) Place the sealed envelopes onto a baking sheet, and brush the tops of each packet with about 1 teaspoon of olive oil.
- Bake in the preheated oven until the asparagus is tender and the salmon is opaque and slightly flaky, 20 to 25 minutes. To serve, place a packet onto a plate, and cut open the paper to release the aroma.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Fold two 16-by-24-inch pieces of parchment paper in half like a book. Using kitchen shears or a chef's knife, cut each into a large half-heart. When unfolded, a whole heart should appear.
- Use a chef's knife or mandoline to very thinly slice the fennel bulb. Cut the leek in half lengthwise, then place on your cutting board flat side down. Slice lengthwise into thin strips (this is called julienne). Very thinly slice the bell pepper lengthwise.
- To assemble the parchment paper packets, drizzle some olive oil on the bottom of each piece and rub it all over one side of each piece of parchment. Place the lemon slices to one side of the creased line down the middle of the parchment paper hearts. Top with the sliced fennel, leeks and bell pepper; season with a pinch of salt and pepper and a drizzle of olive oil. Drizzle the white wine over the veggies. Sprinkle the salmon with a good pinch of salt and few good grinds of pepper and top each with 1 tablespoon of butter. Then place on top of the veggies. To seal the packets, fold the other half of the heart over the fish. Starting at the pointy end or bottom of the heart, fold the edge of the parchment paper in small, overlapping triangles. This will help to create a tight seal and hold in all the steam. Transfer to a rimmed baking sheet. Bake until the vegetables are tender and the fish is just cooked through, 15 to 17 minutes.
- Meanwhile, toss the fennel fronds, dill and parsley together in a small bowl until combined. Cut a slit in the top of each packet, then carefully open--there will be hot steam! Sprinkle with the fresh herb salad and serve.
SALMON EN PAPILLOTE (SALMON IN PARCHMENT)
Salmon cooked en papillote, which means wrapped in a packet of parchment (or foil), is a dramatic way to procure perfectly cooked salmon, but it isn't difficult. Fold a fillet into a cut piece of parchment, and then layer it with seasonings or perhaps vegetables or citrus fruit. Then simply bake the packets until done. The steam created by the parchment produces reliably moist salmon, and opening the individual packets at the table makes for a fun way to start dinner.

Steps:
- For the salmon: Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F. Bring a pot of water to a boil and season with salt.
- Put the canola oil in a pan set over medium-high heat. Season the fennel with salt and pepper. Once the oil is hot, add the fennel and cook on one side until golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Set aside.
- Meanwhile, cook the potato slices in the boiling water for 3 minutes, then drain and set aside.
- Cut 4 pieces of parchment paper into large heart shapes, then fold in half. Lift one side of each parchment heart, put some fennel in the center of the bottom half of each, then shingle the potatoes on top and follow with a piece of salmon. Top each salmon piece with a quarter of the white wine, butter, tarragon and shallots. Season with salt and pepper.
- Begin to close the parchment pieces by crimping the edges in small folds, continuing to fold over part of the previous fold, until the packets are completely closed. Place the packets on a baking sheet and bake for 15 to 18 minutes, depending on your desired doneness.
- For the tapenade: While the salmon is in the oven, combine the olives, capers, anchovy and garlic in a bowl. Add the olive oil, lemon juice and honey and mix until combined. Finish with the minced parsley.
- Open the packets at the table and top each with a spoonful of the tapenade.
