Olive Oyl's Roasted Salmon With Cauliflower Puree image

This is a recipe my Mom makes that came from Emeril LaGasse. She bakes a whole salmon and purees a head of cooked cauliflower in the blender. If you aren't sure you like salmon, you should really give this a try. This is definitely something to make when company's coming. Everyone will want the recipe. This is 5 stars plus. Thanks Mom and Thanks Emeril!
