- After 13 minutes, remove the steaming tray and keep the salmon warm (cover steaming tray).

- Add the butter and the pine nuts to the remaining water and set the timer to 5 minutes at 175°C.

- Add a tablespoon of crème fraiche.
- Place the chard and salmon on a plate to serve.
- Chef’s tip: Raw salmon should smell fresh, like the ocean. If salmon smells overly fishy or is slimy, it probably means that it’s going bad, so please avoid it.
