Pink salmon meat is a very valuable food product. It contains many vitamins (A, B, E, D), trace elements (Ca, F, Fe, Cu, Zn), as well as polyunsaturated acids Omega-3 and Omega-6, which help break down bad cholesterol and restore metabolism. In cooking, this type of fish is appreciated for its rich taste and aroma. There are many dishes that use fresh, canned and even slightly salted pink salmon fillets.
Selection and preparation of ingredients
Products should be purchased in stores where you can check the quality certificate. The fish fillet should be fresh and not stick to your hands. All ingredients have a natural smell without extraneous odors.
Potato tubers should be selected smooth, without seedlings and traces of wilting or spoilage. When buying canned food, rice, eggs, you should pay attention to the release dates and expiration dates. Wash all ingredients before cooking, peel the onions and potatoes.
Important! The fish fillet should be elastic to the touch and when pressed do not lose shape. Too soft, pliable product indicates the beginning of the process of decay.
