Raw salmon, a staple in many global cuisines, notably Japanese sashimi and Hawaiian poke, is prized for its buttery texture and rich flavor. Packed with essential nutrients, salmon is an excellent source of high-quality protein and heart-healthy omega-3 fatty acids, which support brain function, reduce inflammation, and promote cardiovascular health. It provides essential vitamins like B12, D, and niacin, as well as minerals like selenium and potassium, which are vital for bone health and overall cellular function. While raw salmon is highly nutritious, it’s important to source it responsibly as eating improperly handled or contaminated fish may pose a risk of foodborne illness. Opting for sushi-grade or fresh, high-quality salmon can mitigate these risks. A versatile addition to any diet, raw salmon offers both health benefits and a unique, delicate flavor that complements a variety of dishes.
