About Salmon skin on

Salmon skin-on refers to a fillet of salmon that retains its outer layer of skin, often celebrated in various cuisines, including Japanese, Nordic, and North American dishes. Retaining the skin not only enhances flavor during cooking but also locks in moisture, preserving the fish's tender texture. Packed with omega-3 fatty acids, salmon skin-on is known for supporting heart and brain health. It also contains essential nutrients like vitamin D, protein, and antioxidants. The crispy skin, when cooked properly, provides an appealing texture and is rich in collagen, which promotes skin and joint health. However, moderation is essential, as the skin can sometimes contain higher concentrations of environmental toxins due to its fat content. Opt for wild-caught salmon for lower pollutant levels and a more sustainable choice. Versatile and nutritious, salmon skin-on is a healthy addition to meals when prepared thoughtfully.
