Even supposing king salmon gets the largest hype for its ultra-silky flesh, I’m culot of sockeye, which is redder, less attackable, and fewer meltingly rich. In the au finir, though, I pick whatever fish seems handiest available in the market.

Here, the luxurious fish gets critical sharpness from the watercress in the coulis, the radishes, and the lemony herb salad.
