Old man's stir-fry and butter-baked salmon side with Edward Blom

Finally Easter and perhaps the holiday that I appreciate the most of all. Spring and summer are ahead of us with sun, warmth, food and drink. It is also the weekend that symbolizes the starting point for many stovetop lovers when the stoves must be dusted off and taken out of winter storage.
For this week's well-fed Easter episode on Skeppsholmen, I have once again invited the gastronomist Edward Blom, who very generously shares his never-ending knowledge of food history and old traditions.
So what do you serve when big relatives come to visit during the Easter weekend?
I would highly recommend baking a whole side of salmon in butter. Now don't fuss with grating on a few small slices of butter, but boil up half a kilo, which you then pour over the salmon. Then toss the butter around the fish with your long frying spatulas to the desired internal temperature of around 50 degrees. A neat cooking method that brings out every little salmon molecule to perfection for all the senses.
Serve with pickled fennel salad, cold salmon-flax sauce with squeezed fried lemon and the first new potatoes tossed in butter of the year.
