I made this last night with canned salmon and dill instead of sorrel. It was delicious, my husband and I loved it. When using fresh dill, use a lot more than you think, because the flavor is mild.

I made this and didnt have sorrel , so added more parsley [curly parsley as I didnt have the flat leaf kind] It was delicious. I froze half of the fish cakes as not everyone came home for dinner that night....I used my stick blender to blend the sauce right in the pan. Very tasty.

Definition: [SOR-uhl] Sorrel leaves are shaped much like those of spinach and range from pale to dark green in color and from 2 to 12 inches in length. Fresh sorrels peak season is in the spring. It should be chosen for its bright green, crisp leaves. Refrigerate fresh sorrel in a plastic bag for up to 3 days. In the spring, when at its youngest and mildest, sorrel is used in salads or cooked as a vegetable.

Sorrel leaves are a large citrusy flavored leaf usually used in sauce. I think that they taste better raw, and shall liquify them that way with the cream.
