About Lachs

Lachs, commonly known as salmon, is a nutrient-rich fish celebrated in cuisines worldwide, particularly in Scandinavian, Japanese, and American dishes. Packed with high-quality protein, omega-3 fatty acids, and essential vitamins like B12 and D, it's renowned for supporting heart health, brain function, and reducing inflammation. Its vibrant pink-orange flesh owes its color to astaxanthin, a powerful antioxidant. Salmon is versatile, enjoyed smoked, grilled, baked, or raw in sushi. Wild-caught varieties are often considered healthier due to lower contaminants compared to some farmed options, though farmed salmon can still be a valuable source of nutrients. While its fat content is mostly heart-healthy, moderation is key, particularly with types containing higher sodium levels, such as smoked salmon. This fish offers a delicious and wholesome addition to a balanced diet with countless preparation possibilities.
