Salmon Gratin Adapted From Julia Child

---

This recipe can also be made with seafood. this is how i make it using canned salmon. the pastry crust is optional. now that i am using almond milk (i like almond breeze), i will probably use that to replace the milk or cream. the cook time does not include baking time for the optional pastry shell.
