"Don't let the name scare you off. This is one of the easiest recipes ever. I've been making it since I was 8 years old. A great supper with rice or baked potatoes and a veg. This comes from an old, old, old Good Housekeeping cookbook bought by my Mom when she was first married over 60 years ago. It's lovingly referred to in my family as "the bible"."

WONDERFUL! I love an old-fashioned recipe once in awhile, and had everything to make this, so tagged it in the Billboard recipe tag game. I followed the recipe exactly except for omitting the nutmeg and adding a teaspoon of lemon pepper. I haven't ever made a non-dessert souffle, so am not sure if this was supposed to rise higher...but a combo of the 'heavy' salmon and my quirky running hot oven may have made it bake differently. Any which way it turned out tasting GREAT! We enjoyed it with a side of pan-fried potatoes and peas...which all went very well together. Freddy Cat says thanks for the salmon!
