Personal Notes:
This has an amazing flavor and is a great company recipe.
The flaming adds to the flavor, so be brave. When the pan is off the heat, tilt pan away from you and using a long handled lighter, touch the flame to the liquid. It will immediately ignite with a whoosh. Put the pan down (not on the heat) and wait for the flames to subside.
You can buy a small piece of smoked salmon in the grocery store, near the seafood section, often near the fake crab.
