Tacos aren't Tacos unless you apply lots of Habanero Sauce on them.

I usually cook mine in the oven wrapped in foil.. you can rub a bit butter over it first if yu like and season with some black pepper... or whatever you fancy really. I think the trick is ,, it never takes as long to cook as you think it would:sneaky: thats mu hubs downfall when cooking,, he always has to "make sure" its properly cooked so usually overcooks it:rolleyes:

I buy the farm raised stuff from the grocery store and shake some lemon pepper on it, broil it for about 4 min. each side. Kids love it:-4

Post by **Sunshine** » Thu May 14, 2009 10:02 am

I always seem to over cook it. do you judge the cooking time by how thick the peice is? I have also heard that farm raised salmon is not the way to go.

Nutrition

Salmon is low in saturated fats and calories, contains high levels of protein and healthy omega-3 fatty acids. Omega-3 fatty acids are consider essential because our body cannot naturally produce them, but can be founds in foods like salmon. It also an extremely good source in other nutrients including selenium, niacin and vitamin B12 along with being a good source in many other vitamins and minerals. Wild salmon is far more nutritious in terms of fat and protein content. Wild fish contain 20% more protein, 20% less fat and are in general much smaller. Even being fattier, farmed raised contain much less usable omega-3 fatty acids and and contain higher levels of omega-6 fatty acids. The lower the ratio of omega-3 to omega-6 fatty acids. Wild fish in general contain a much more favorable ratio of omega-3’s to omega-6. The ratio for salmon is 15:1 for wild as compared to 3:1 for farmed raised.

Love salmon like I said. I may have to pick some up tomorrow and try it again. Thanks for the cooking information. :-4

I tried the smoked salmon with my brood...went over like a lead balloon:-5...they weren't impressed. I'm sure if they tried salmon in a restaurant, they would love it. Will have to look for the wild salmon next time. Surprise them...me, I don't care for it.
