Ingredients:

5
slices white bread, crusts removed
1 1/2
teaspoons salt
1/2
teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1
small shallot, minced
2
tablespoons chopped fresh dill
1/2
cup freshly grated horseradish (grated on small holes of box grater)
2
tablespoons olive oil, plus more for pan
6
six-ounce salmon fillets, skin removed

1. Heat oven to 450°; position rack 8 to 12 inches from heat. Place bread in the bowl of a food processor; pulse until coarsely chopped (1/4- to 1/8-inch pieces). Add 1 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon pepper, shallot, dill, horseradish, and 2 tablespoons olive oil. Pulse just until combined; set aside.

2. Rub bottom and sides of a 12-by-17-inch pan with olive oil. Place salmon on pan, spacing fillets 2 inches apart. Sprinkle salmon with remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Pat mixture onto top of each fillet. Bake until just cooked through, 5 to 6 minutes. Turn heat to broil, and cook until tops are a rich golden brown, 1 to 2 minutes.
Serve immediately.
