Note

You can use prepared horseradish from a jar for convenience, but if you prefer a sharper, more intense heat, try grating fresh horseradish root. If using fresh, grate it just before mixing to maintain potency.

For a gluten-free version, substitute regular bread crumbs with gluten-free panko or crushed gluten-free crackers.

Ensure the salmon steaks are patted completely dry before applying the mayonnaise; moisture can prevent the crust from sticking and becoming crisp.

Keep an eye on the salmon during the last few minutes of baking to prevent the breadcrumb crust from burning, as it can brown quickly at high temperatures.

This dish pairs well with roasted asparagus, steamed broccoli, or a light cucumber salad to balance the richness of the salmon.
