Text Box: Roasted Cedar Plank Salmon
   By chef Willie White of the fabulous Algonquin Hotel
2 pound salmon fillet 
3 T vegetable oil 
1 1/2 T soy sauce 
1 1/2 tsp. chopped garlic 
1/2 tsp. salt 
1/4 tsp. white pepper 
1/3 cup Rye or Scotch Whisky 
1 T brown sugar 
   Place salmon filet in a long shallow dish. Mix together all ingredients and pour over the salmon filet. Marinate for 1/2 hour. 
   Pre-heat oven to 400°F. Place the cedar plank directly on the oven rack and bake for 8-10 minutes. This will lightly toast the wood. Remove the plank from the oven and rub with a thin coating of olive oil while plank is still hot. Place salmon directly on the hot plank and roast on the plank for about ten minutes. 
Serves 4 - 6
