A HEALTHY LIFE FOR ME 
I love salmon, and this sounds amazing!!
It really is sooo good!
Another gorgeous looking recipe that I can’t wait to try… I’m not sure what Japanese Panko Crumbs are. Could breadcrumbs be substituted??
You can pick up Panko breadcrumbs in the Asian section of your grocery store. It is a lighter Japanese style bread. It is the breadcrumbs they put on shrimp tempura, if that helps. You could use regular breadcrumbs with no problem, it just might not be as crunchy.
Okay – I know which ones you mean. Thanks! To do your recipe justice I’m going to look out for some 🙂
