Cooking instruction summary:

Remove salmon and let rest on a plate. 3 Place 1 tablespoon butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. When butter is melted, add shallots and 1/4 teaspoon salt and sauté until soft, 5 minutes. 4 In a small bowl, whisk 7 tablespoons butter until smooth and creamy. Stir in creme fraiche. 5 Place cooked salmon in a large bowl and lightly break it up with a fork.

Food Joke

Four surgeons were taking a coffee break and were discussing their work. The first said, "I think accountants are the easiest to operate on. You open them up and everything inside is numbered." The second said, "I think librarians are the easiest to operate on. You open them up and everything inside is in alphabetical order." The third said, "I like to operate on electricians. You open them up and everything inside is color-coded." The fourth one said, "I like to operate on lawyers. They're heartless spineless, gutless, and their heads and their ass are interchangeable."
