Baked Salmon Recipes - Professional Results

Baked salmon can be one of the most healthy and enjoyable meals available.  There are many great baked salmon recipes that use simple spices and herbs, or you can get fancy with sauces and rubs.

The first secret to great results is this same secret that applies to all types of fish.  The salmon must be extremely fresh — more than two days old and there will be a significant decrease in the quality of your meal.  When you buy salmon it should look fresh and be virtually odorless.  If the fish you are purchasing has any discernible odor it is usually too old.  Also, if the eyes are cloudy the fish is not in good condition for cooking.

Another important factor in achieving great results with your baked salmon recipes is to not overcook the fish and to use the right temperature.  Between three hundred and fifty and three hundred and seventy five degrees is optimal.

If you touch the flesh of the fish with a fork and there is hardly any resistance then the fish is cooked.  If you feel a fair amount of resistance on the fork then you have probably overcooked the salmon.  Remember, the salmon will continue to cook itself for a minute or two after you remove it from the oven.

If you leave the skin on the salmon the skin side should always be placed down for cooking.  After baking is completed the skin will normally separate from the fish naturally.

In many cases people who are not particularly fond of fish will thoroughly enjoy a baked salmon recipe if it is done correctly.  Baked salmon is also low in calories and carbohydrates, and contains important omega-3 fatty acids.

It is hard to go wrong if you stick to the basics including Dill, Rosemary, or teriyaki sauce.  Of course, you shouldn’t use these three spices together in one recipe, but separately as a lead ingredient each of the spices and herbs creates a great foundation for baked salmon.
