Note: Many fish markets sell sole pre-stuffed with salmon However, if this is not available, you can roll a piece of fresh salmon (about 1-inch in diameter and 4-inches long) in a small fillet. Fasten each roll with a toothpick. Unstuffed sole or sole that has been  stuffed with shrimp, clams, scallops or  crabmeat can also be used for this recipe. It is  advisable to roll sole fillets even though they may  not be stuffed.
