This method was amazing! I used garlic powder, onion powder, seasoning salt, kosher salt, black pepper and some dill weed mixed together for the rub and then cooked exactly as directed and you didn’t lie! The salmon was perfectly seared on top and cooked throughout without losing any moisture. Thank you for this awesome recipe! I will always use it now

Fennel pollen seems like just a ‘delicate’ version of the fennel spice . . . it’s yellowish and has a milder flavor than the fennel seeds I use in Indian cooking. Honestly, any spice would work here: chili powder mixed with oregano is really good, a little cumin is good, flavored salts or pepper (like lemon pepper), Cajun spice, Italian seasoning, etc.–you can also mix some spices together and make a rub, like a blend of garlic powder, rosemary, and thyme would be good. Anything that floats your boat! =) This is basically just a good cooking method that you can use while adding any flavor you like.

What is fennel pollen? If you don’t use it, what spice would you recommend?
