Cooking Salmon

Avoid overcooking salmon as it can become very dry and un-enjoyable. Cook until the flesh becomes firm. Test doneness at the thickest point of the fillet or steak.

Leftover Salmon

Leftover cooked salmon is perfect for soups, salads, pasta sauces and sandwich or cracker spreads. Bake some extra to use for the next day.
