- To make the crust, grind fresh crust less bread in a food processor until coarsely chopped. In a pan cook the chopped garlic until golden.

Remove from the bowl and spread out on parchment paper ¼ inch thick. Refrigerate. Place the salmon on an oven safe pan, season and cut a piece of your hardened crust to fit atop of the salmon. Cook in a broiler with top heat until the crust is golden. Finish with just oven heat if the salmon is not fully cooked.
