SALMON

The USA is a salmon powerhouse because nearly 33% of the world’s wild salmon supply comes from here.

As a result, there are many types of salmon available in the market.

HowTo gets the fresh and best salmon:

 here are my buying tips:

  • Wild-caught salmon. If you find wild salmon in your market, buy it. Wild salmon comes from the pristine waters of the Pacific Northwest and Alaska and packed full of omega 3 fatty acids.
  • Farmed salmon. If you are buying farmed salmon, choose those imported from Norway. Avoid the ones from China. Chinese farms use potentially carcinogenic (cancer-causing) chemicals to raise the fish.
  • For the freshest fish, shop on the day when your grocery stores restock their fish.
  • Wild salmon looks orange in color whereas farmed salmon is pale orange in color.
  • Avoid salmon color that is bright orange or red. It means food dye has been added to the fish.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

COOKING METHODS FOR SALMON RECIPES

There are many ways to make this easy salmon recipe:

  • You can cook the salmon in a skillet on the stovetop, as shown in the recipe card.
  • You can bake it in the oven at 400°F for 8 minutes, uncovered.
  • You can also wrap the salmon with a sheet of aluminum foil and bake it in the oven for 10 minutes.

CAN I FREEZE COOKED SALMON?

I don’t recommend freezing cooked salmon because it will affect the texture of this salmon recipe. The flesh will become tough and rubbery after freezing.

You can certainly store cooked salmon in the refrigerator for a couple of days. Just wrap it tightly with a sheet of plastic wrap.

To serve, just reheat the salmon in a microwave for 1 minute.

DO YOU EAT THE SKIN ON SALMON?

When it comes to cooking salmon, one of the biggest questions is whether or not to cook with skin on or skin off.

Salmon skin is edible. Personally, I don’t eat salmon skin unless the salmon is deep-fried and the salmon skin becomes crispy.

For easy cooking, there is no need to remove the skin. Cook the salmon as is, with skin on, then discard the skin if you don’t want to eat it.

Just make sure that the skin is completely cleaned with no scales.

HOW MANY CALORIES PER SERVING?

This salmon recipe is only 327 calories per serving.
