Fresh raspberry vinaigrette brings the taste of summer to salmon. The fruit's sweetness and light acidity also balances the rich flavor of the fish. Equally delicious when served cold, it makes a perfect picnic entrée. Or, crumble the cooked salmon into pieces, marinate in the dressing, and toss with a green salad for a quick, healthful meal.

Ingredients
Method
Preheat the oven to 350°F.
Put raspberries, shallots and mustard into a food processor or blender.
Purée until smooth.
With the processor running, slowly add the olive oil and process until a smooth emulsion has formed, about 30 seconds, then for an additional 30 seconds.
Add vinegar and process until well combined.
Taste and season with half the salt and pepper. (If dressing is too thick, add a small amount of water or cranberry juice to thin to desired consistency.)
Lightly coat salmon with canola oil, then season with salt and pepper.
Bake salmon for 12-15 minutes, until flesh is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
Warm 1/2 cup of the raspberry vinaigrette in a small non-reactive saucepan. (Save remaining for another use.)
Arrange fillets on serving plates and spoon the warmed vinaigrette over the top.
