Add salt, pepper and cayenne, remove from heat and set aside to cool until lukewarm.
• Skin and bone salmon meat and flake with a fork. Cut remaining butter into chunks. Add salmon and butter to bechamel and mix well, using an electric beater rather than a blender or processor.
• Add cream and Cognac to salmon mixture and blend thoroughly. Taste for seasoning, adding more salt, pepper or cayenne if necessary.
• Refrigerate, covered, until the mixture has thickened sufficiently to allow piping through a pastry bag and tube - 2 to 3 hours, or overnight.
