Is it okay if my salmon is a little pink?
Today, let's talk about what's the situation when salmon is a bit pink and whether it can still be eaten? First of all, the meat of salmon itself is on the pink side, mainly caused by their diet. Shrimp substances contain a large amount of natural substances such as astaxanthin. Therefore, as long as there is no peculiar smell in salmon, it can all be eaten.
But it should be noted that if the salmon you purchased has a serious fishy smell and the color is a bit black or green, then this kind of salmon is abnormal and may have deteriorated and cannot be eaten anymore. Unfresh salmon is easy to breed bacteria and other harmful substances.
What not to do with salmon?
First of all, foods rich in tannins, such as persimmons, grapes, pomegranates and other foods. Salmon is rich in protein content, and tannins will combine with protein to form a substance that is difficult for the human body to digest and absorb. Eating them together may increase the burden on the human gastrointestinal tract and cause symptoms such as indigestion, abdominal pain, and nausea in the human body.
Secondly, salmon should be avoided from being eaten with spicy and irritating foods, such as peppers. Eating them together may cover up the original freshness of salmon. For people with sensitive stomachs, it may stimulate the stomach and cause gastrointestinal disorders.
Tips for Success
To make Orange Sauce Salmon successfully, you need to choose fresh ingredients, grasp the heat well during cooking, and control the amount when seasoning.
First of all, it is best to ensure that the salmon is fresh. Fresh salmon has firm meat, bright color, and the best taste; oranges should also be freshly picked. Such oranges have rich juice and the highest vitamin C content.
When frying salmon, control the heat properly. It is recommended to fry the salmon on both sides until golden brown over medium-low heat, and then add other side dishes. This can not only lock the texture of salmon but also keep the side dishes crisp and tender.
Finally, when adding orange juice for seasoning, you can add some water appropriately, so that the orange juice taste is more refreshing. Pay attention to continuous stirring during the process.
