About Fatty salmon

Fatty salmon, known for its rich flavor and velvety texture, is a prized ingredient in global cuisines, particularly Japanese, Scandinavian, and coastal traditions. This fish is renowned for being an excellent source of omega-3 fatty acids, which support heart health, brain function, and anti-inflammatory benefits. It's also packed with high-quality protein, vitamin D, and a variety of essential nutrients such as selenium and B vitamins, making it a nutritional powerhouse. While its fat content earns it the name "fatty," much of this fat is healthy, unsaturated fat that benefits overall wellness. However, because of its higher calorie density compared to leaner fish, portions should be balanced within a healthy diet. Fatty salmon is versatile, enjoyed raw in sushi, grilled, baked, or smoked, offering a nutritious and flavorful option for diverse culinary creations.
