Everything Bagel Cedar Plank Salmon

Everything Bagel Cedar Plank Salmon

Back when I first developed this recipe (in April of 2016 according to the time stamps on the photos) everything bagel seasoning was not something you could buy in jar. Fast forward 3 years and it is all over the place. Does this mean I am a trend setter? The argument would probably be stronger if I actually published the recipe in 2016 but it just hung out in my computer for a few years instead. Here I give you the recipe to make your own bagel seasoning, but you can just as easily substitute a pre-mixed version. I like to serve this salmon with a swirl of dill and chive cream cheese (try Kite Hill for a dairy free version) and a tomato, cucumber and red onion salad to play up the smoked salmon bagel aspect of the recipe.
