About Sesame-crusted salmon or tofu

Sesame-Crusted Salmon or Tofu is a flavorful dish inspired by Asian cuisine, combining nutty sesame seeds with tender protein. The salmon option provides omega-3 fatty acids, which support heart health and brain function, while the tofu serves as an excellent plant-based alternative, rich in complete protein and calcium. Both are coated in crunchy sesame seeds, a source of healthy fats, fiber, and antioxidants, then lightly pan-seared or baked for a balance of crispiness and moisture. Typically served with steamed vegetables or a side of rice, this dish can be tailored to suit gluten-free or low-sodium preferences. While nutritious overall, its healthiness can vary depending on the amount of oil used for cooking or any accompanying sauces. Perfect for those seeking a protein-packed, nutrient-dense meal with bold flavors, it is suitable for pescatarians, vegetarians, and health-focused food lovers alike.
