1. Sounds good, but I hate mayo

I know, weird. How do you think it would taste to substitute butter for the mayo?

3. Butter and lemon

or butter and sour cream with lemon have always seemed an appropriate substitute for mayo to me, but I'll let the person that generously offered the recipe to our community decide what is a good substitute, if any.

2. I have some salmon in the fridge and was looking for things to cook

but what are capers? What do they taste like?

4. Response to all.

Even if you hate mayo, it keeps the salmon super moist. It has a tendency to dry out on the grill. So trust me on this. Just do it once. If you don't like it, don't do it again. Our family motto is "Try new things." And to answer, what are capers. They're these little flower tops that are pickled. Hard to describe. They're available at most major grocery stores and especially cheap at Trader Joe's. They really make the dish.
