One hour before serving, remove mixture from refrigerator, add lime juice, oil, salt and pepper, and mix gently. Set aside at room temperature. Blanch cilantro in 2 cups salted boiling water for 5 seconds, remove and immerse quickly in ice water and drain on paper towels. Place cilantro, oil and pinch salt in blender and blend at high speed until emulsified. Pour into squeeze bottle; set aside. Season salmon with salt and pepper. Dredge in flour.

Heat small amount of oil in pan until smoking and sear salmon on all sides. While salmon finishes cooking, whisk together salad oil, lime juice, salt and pepper to make vinaigrette.

Mix with baby greens. Place 1/2 cup dressed greens in center of six plates. Distribute nectarine relish around greens attractively and place 1 salmon portion atop each base of greens. Garnish plates with cilantro oil and serve. Refrigerate unused oil for later use.
