Here’s an easy dinner to welcome spring. Wild salmon season is starting now. For this easy dinner, I added fresh asparagus and new potatoes to complete the meal.

Little, sweet creamer potatoes or new potatoes are a spring crop. They have a short season, from April to June. Look for the very small ones, about 3/4 to 1 inch in diameter, which don’t need a lot of cooking. You can use red or yellow potatoes instead. Cut them into 3/4-inch pieces.

Helpful Hints

  • When you buy the salmon, ask for the salmon skin to be removed.
  • You can use any salmon fillet if wild salmon isn’t available.
  • You can find toasted sesame oil in the oil sections of the market, or you can use regular sesame oil instead.
