Nutritional values

A pair that is as pretty as they are harmonious: the tender pike-perch fillet is extremely low in fat; the salmon provides valuable omega-3 fatty acids. The cream sauce for the delicious leek also contains mainly unsaturated fatty acids - it is prepared with soy cream instead of cream.

Soy cream is not only a good alternative to cream or crème fraîche for people with lactose intolerance: since it contains only about 17 grams of fat instead of 30, but no cholesterol, it helps to enjoy a figure- and heart-conscious lifestyle.
