Grilled Salmon With Dilled Mustard Glaze image

The sugar and dill in this glaze is used to cure gravlax by Scandinavian-Americans in Minnesota, but the combination works just as well on the grill. This is a "Staff Favorite" at Food & Wine Magazine. This recipe also works well in the oven. The lightly caramelized sweet mustard glaze and rich, smoky flavors here will find echoes in an oak-aged Chardonnay.

1 tablespoon yellow mustard seeds
1/4 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup whole grain mustard
1 tablespoon dill, finely chopped
1 1/2 teaspoons fresh lime juice
1 1/2 teaspoons dark brown sugar
fresh ground pepper
vegetable oil, for the grill
2 lbs salmon fillets, skin on (One, 2-pound Salmon Fillet, skin on)
1 tablespoon olive oil

Steps:

  • Toast mustard seeds over moderate heat until they darken and begin to pop, about 2 minutes. Transfer to a plate and set aside.
  • In a mixing bowl, whisk mayonnaise with mustard, dill, lime juice and brown sugar. Season with pepper. Set Aside.
  • Light a gas grill and lightly brush grate with oil.
  • Run your fingers over the salmon fillet, feeling for bones. Use tweezers to remove any bones you find.
  • Brush skin side of salmon with olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
  • Place fillet on grill, skin side down, and spread the mustard glaze over the fish. Sprinkle with mustard seeds.
