• 1 tablespoon white wine vinegar
  
• 2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh parsley
  
• 1 tablespoon chopped fresh tarragon or 1 teaspoon dried

TO PREPARE:

For sauce:  In a small bowl, combine mustard, sugar, vinegar, parsley and tarragon.  Blend well.  Slowly add olive oil, blending well.  Set aside.

Brush salmon with lemon juice and olive oil.  Place under a preheated broiler for about 5 minutes.  Turn and broil for 5 minutes more or until translucent.  Spoon sauce over steaks and serve immediately.
