rather than wash the tray out.\u00a0\u00a0 Slice the onions into rings, break up and spread in the bottom of the tray. \u00a0Rinse the salmon and place on top of the onion pieces. \u00a0 Sprinkle the herbs liberally over the salmon.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.vennwood.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/08\/Salmon1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-1863\" title=\"Salmon\" src=\"http:\/\/www.vennwood.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/08\/Salmon1-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.vennwood.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/08\/Salmon1-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.vennwood.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/08\/Salmon1.jpg 640w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Pre &#8211;
