If you’re looking to cook salmon, there are a few things you need to know before getting started. First and foremost, make sure the salmon is fresh. If it’s not, it will not cook properly and may even spoil. Secondly, always clean your salmon before cooking it. This will help ensure that the fish is free of any bacteria or parasites that could make you sick. Finally, follow these simple steps to clean your salmon:
- Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Place the salmon filets on a baking sheet and bake for 10-12 minutes per side until cooked through.
- Once the salmon is cooked, remove it from the oven and let it cool slightly before cleaning it.
- Use a sharp knife to slice off the skin of the salmon filet and discard it. Then use a fork to gently flake the flesh into small pieces.
- In a large bowl, combine 1 cup of water with 1 tablespoon of salt and stir well to dissolve the salt. Add this mixture to the bowl with the flaked salmon and stir until everything is evenly coated. Let the mixture sit for 10 minutes so that any excess moisture can be absorbed by the fish.
- Use your hands or a kitchen towel to gently wipe down all surfaces of your Salmon fillets including both sides of each piece of flesh (you may need 2-3 towels). Make sure you get into all nooks and crannies! Finally, rinse off all surfaces with cold water and pat dry with a towel before cooking as usual! ..
