Steps

1. 1

   Season the salmon with salt and pepper. Steam the fish until it turns opaque in the center, which should take approximately 15 minutes. Allow the salmon to cool down completely before proceeding.

2. 2

   Begin by lining a baking sheet with paper towels. Slice the center portion of each zucchini into 1/8-inch-thick lengthwise strips to yield a total of 24 strips. Steam the zucchini strips in batches until they are just tender and flexible, which should take approximately 3 minutes. Once steamed, transfer the zucchini strips onto the prepared baking sheet and gently press them dry using the paper towels.

3. 3

   In a small bowl, combine mayonnaise, 3/4 cup of chopped dill, and vinegar. Whisk the ingredients together until well blended. Season the dill sauce with salt and pepper according to your preference.
