This sounds delicious! Quick questions: How much salmon does this seasoning and glaze coat? If I don’t have any cherry de-lite syrup, what would make a good substitute? Thanks!

I had a 16 oz frozen salmon fillet and was plenty of glaze and seasoning. If you don’t have the cherry de-lite syrup I would recommend (ordering it from us lol); you can simmer dried Cherry De-Lites in water (or cherry juice) and brown sugar for about 20 minutes.
Hope you enjoy!
