Anthony Bourdain mentions this in his books and it was once adapted into an Elimination Challenge on Top Chef.  Apparently, chefs like to discuss what their dream &#8220;last meal&#8221; would be and try to out-do each other in their inspired (and usually quite nostalgic) gluttony.  There&#8217;s even a great song (by Asleep at the Wheel, I think?) about a death row inmate, ordering his last meal of over-easy dinosaur eggs, tiger steak and cross-eyed cat fish (more in an attempt to postpone the inevitable than to have a gourmet experience, but still&#8230;.)<br \/>\nThis is the second time that I have prepared salmon with lentils at home (<a href=\"http:\/\/www.feedyourkids.com\/2008\/11\/salmon-with-lentils-and-mustar.html\">here&#8217;s<\/a> the first version) and I have decided that I love it enough to put it on the &#8220;short list&#8221; (I have a hard time narrowing it down &#8211; my love of soft-shell crabs is getting in the way) of potential items for my &#8220;last meal.&#8221;  The combination of buttery salmon and peppery lentils is just perfection, in my mind.  I like this preparation more than the first version that I tried.  The mustard sauce is outstanding and I enjoyed the lentils better without all of the leeks (the flavor of the shallots in the second version is much more subtle and just kind of melts into the background).<br \/>\nIn you&#8217;re so inclined, leave me a comment and tell me what your last meal would be&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.feedyourkids.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/04\/IMG_7787.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-763\" title=\"IMG_7787\" src=\"http:\/\/www.feedyourkids.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/04\/IMG_7787.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"320\" height=\"252\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Crispy Salmon with Lentils du Puy and Two-Mustard Creme Fraiche (Click here for recipe.)
