What better to serve on a hot summer day than a salad that’s both fresh and filling. The salty salmon, mango, dill and wasabi complement each other in this light, fish based summer treat. Swedes love fish whether it's boiled, cured, fried, smoked or grilled … this recipe works especially well with gravlax, grilled or fried salmon.
