Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 325 F and lightly butter a 1 1/2-quart casserole.

  2. Drain and lightly flake the salmon, removing any skin or large bones.

  3. Separate the eggs, setting whites aside; beat yolks and set aside.

  4. Melt butter in a large saucepan over low heat, stir in flour, and cook for 2 minutes.

  5. Gradually add milk to the butter-flour mixture, stirring constantly until the sauce thickens.

  6. Blend 1/4 cup of the hot sauce with the beaten egg yolks, then quickly stir this mixture back into the main sauce.

  7. Stir in parsley, chives, nutmeg, salt, pepper, and the flaked salmon.

  8. Beat egg whites to stiff, glossy peaks.

  9. Gently fold the beaten egg whites into the salmon mixture, then transfer to the prepared casserole.

  10. Bake for 50 to 60 minutes, or until golden brown and set.
