Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400°F. Bring a pot of water to boil, and salt the water. Drop the asparagus in the boiling water and cook for 2 minutes. Transfer the asparagus to an ice bath, and cool completely. Dry on a paper towel, then slice into thin coins on a bias. Mix the asparagus pieces with rosemary, garlic, crème fraîche, and lemon zest in a small bowl.
- Unfold both sheets of puff pastry, and lay them separately on a counter or cutting board. Place one piece of salmon on one side of each sheet of puff pastry. Top each salmon fillet with half the asparagus mixture. Then, fold the pastry over the salmon, and press the pastry together to form a seal. Trim any pastry border in excess of 1 inch, and then crimp the edge of the pastry. Cut 2 or 3 steam vents in the top of the pastry, and place the two parcels on a parchment-lined rimmed baking sheet. Bake until puffed and golden, about 35 minutes. Slice each parcel in half, and serve immediately.

SALMON EN CROUTE
Steps:
- Skin and bone the salmon and set aside. Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F/230 degrees C.
- Cut the tips off the asparagus. Reserve the stems and poach the tips in boiling salted water until tender, 3 to 5 minutes. Drain well, refresh in ice cold water, then drain again, leaving to sit so that all the water comes off. Puree the asparagus and stir in the creme fraiche, dill and lemon zest to blend. Season with salt and pepper and set aside.
- Lay 1 sheet of puff pastry on a damp baking sheet with the long edge facing you. Lay the salmon on the pastry, like a picture in its frame. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Spread the top of the salmon with the asparagus puree. Lay the raw stems of asparagus on top of the puree, like pencils.
- Brush the margins of the pastry with the egg wash. Lay the second sheet of pastry over the salmon and press the edges to seal, like a giant ravioli. Trim the edges, leaving a 1-inch/2.5 cm border. Press with the tines of a fork, then, with the dull edge of a knife, scallop the edges. Make 2 or 3 slits in the top to allow steam to escape. Brush all over with the egg wash and bake until puffed up and golden brown, about 20 minutes.
- Remove from the oven and let cool for 5 minutes before slicing. This dish is also good at room temperature.

ROASTED SALMON WITH ASPARAGUS, LEMON AND BROWN BUTTER
Ready in just 15 minutes, this fast dinner combines silky salmon with a vibrant green medley of asparagus and peas. While the fish roasts, the vegetables and sauce come together in one pan on the stovetop. Thinly slicing the asparagus is the trick to maintaining a crisp texture that complements the tender salmon, while bright lemon juice and zingy capers balance the nutty brown butter sauce. Parsley is used here to finish, but dill or tarragon would also be lovely. Leftover vegetables make a fantastic omelet filling the next day.
