The main advantage of red fish is a lot of useful fatty acids in the composition, which favorably affect the functioning of the brain and nervous system, and strengthen the walls of blood vessels. It also contains melatonin, which promotes cell rejuvenation, the formation of a healthy and sound sleep.

Salmon or salmon is the favorite fish of average Russians. The taste of fish is self-sufficient and does not require sauces, and cooking does not take much time. Salads, first and second courses, cold and hot appetizers are prepared from salmon.

This fish contains potassium, calcium, magnesium, phosphorus, vitamins A, E and group B, including omega-3 fatty acid. These substances enter the human body within an hour after consumption. Thus, the inclusion of salmon dishes in the diet reduces cholesterol levels, improves the elasticity of the walls of blood vessels, and has a beneficial effect on the figure, despite the calorie content, since salmon fats do not accumulate in the human body.

Salmon also has disadvantages that require special attention. Firstly, according to research, salmon can accumulate mercury in meat during its life. Secondly, in order to improve the appearance of the product, during artificial breeding, the fish is tinted or fed with tinting substances, which is harmful to humans. Therefore, it is important to choose the right steaks and carcasses when buying.

How to choose salmon

It is important to determine the freshness of the fish, but this factor is not the only main criterion. No less necessary will be the definition of the type of fish: salmon or salmon. Unscrupulous sellers are sometimes cunning and give out tinted cheap fish for salmon, and tinting is harmful both to human health and to the taste of the dish.
Today, store shelves are filled with different fish. These are fresh, chilled or frozen carcasses, cut and not cut, fillets, portioned steaks "pieces", which are equal in thickness to 2-3 steaks, as well as the tail and head, suitable for cooking first courses.



If salmon is represented by a whole carcass, take a closer look at the head. Salmon have a pointed head. In addition, large scales, and there are no black dots on the surface, like a trout. Pay close attention to the following settings:

  • The color of the fillet is a bright or pale shade. Preference should be given to pale fish, because. there is a high probability that such fish is grown in natural conditions. But this parameter is not accurate, because many factors affect the color of meat. The "correct" fish has white streaks;
  • Date of cutting or packing. Chilled fish is stored for 14 days;
    The structure of the chilled meat is elastic, does not deform when pressed with a finger;
  • Another indicator of the freshness of uncut fish is the eyes. In fresh fish, the eyes are clear, not cloudy, and the tail is wet. Also pay attention to the shine of the fish. If it shines excessively, the fish has probably been chemically treated to extend its shelf life;
  • Naturally, the carcass should not be slippery, and the packaging should not be torn or damaged;
  • Fresh fish smells like the sea.

How to choose salmon?


The most useful salmon, according to experts, is wild, caught in reservoirs. But in the modern world, we are more often faced with artificially grown individuals. How exactly they are grown remains a mystery to us, so we have to trust the conscience of the producers.

In order for the use of salmon to really benefit our health, it is advisable to buy fresh fish. It should not have a pronounced fishy aroma. If one is present, then it is better to refuse the purchase. And since salmon must be stored under certain conditions, preference should be given to those stores that have a certificate for the storage of such products.

In a fresh carcass, the sides and belly should be a bright silver color, and the back should be black and iridescent. The salmon is black with colored spots, says that it was caught during the spawning period. The meat of such an individual is tasteless and has practically no useful properties.


It would seem, well, what could be easier than cooking a salmon steak? I took it, put it on the grill, frying pan or oven - and all the love. However, even such a seemingly elementary case, it turns out, has nuances.
  1. It is advisable to marinate salmon, fillets or steaks before cooking. The marinade will make it softer and give it a special taste.
  2. For the marinade, fresh lemon juice, vegetable or olive oil, aromatic herbs (thyme, rosemary, cilantro), salt and pepper are used. They perfectly complement the taste of salmon. But here it is important not to overdo it with spices, so that they do not interrupt the taste of the fish and spoil the dish.
  3. Only 15-20 minutes will be enough to marinate the fish. If it is overcooked, it may fall apart during cooking. Since the acid of lemon juice, while frying the fish, destroys the protein in its cells, from which the meat becomes softer and begins to disintegrate.
  4. The cooking temperature is determined “by touch” - it will be difficult to hold your palm over a frying pan or barbecue. In the oven, the temperature is usually chosen - 180 ° C.
  5. The degree of roasting of the fish is determined by pressing its flesh with a finger, which should spring. You can also pierce the surface of the finished fish, if the protein comes out, then it is ready.
  6. So that the fish does not stick to the pan or grate, they should be warmed up well, and the oven tray should be lightly greased with oil.
