Buy Salmon Online And Enjoy A Healthy And Delicious Meal

By Essie Osborn


If you love fresh food, you probably prefer your fish not to come from a can. The problem with fresh fish is that it's not always possible to find, especially if you live far away from a large body of water. Moreover, it's usually a seasonal food so you can enjoy it only at certain times of the year. However, if you buy salmon online you can enjoy this delicious treat any time, winter or summer.

When it comes to fish, salmon is a very good choice. It's delicious and versatile but it's also a very healthy option. Apart from its high protein content, it's an important source of essential omega-3 fatty acids, great for fighting heart disease or for treating conditions like bipolar disorder, autism, ADHD and depression. Moreover, it contains a good supply of bone-building Vitamin D.

The king of fish is found primarily at high latitudes in the Northern Hemisphere. There are different species found in North America, Europe and Asia. The fish lives in the ocean or around river estuaries where it feeds on other marine animals such as crustaceans. When it has reaches sexual maturity, it enters freshwater rivers and swims hundreds of miles upstream to go lay its eggs. It dies soon after spawning.

Overfishing has had an impact on salmon populations, just like it's affected most fish species. Farmed fish is an attempt to try and produce enough to meet the immense demand but foodies normally prefer wild fish, which is of better quality. When ordering your fish supply online, check the supplier's record and find out exactly where the fish was sourced so that you can ensure it was harvested through sustainable practices.

As soon as you have a good supply, it's time to start experimenting. One of the simplest ways to prepare your fish is to grill it. If you want, you can marinade it beforehand. Then serve it with a few wedges of lemon or impress everyone with a peach or mango salsa.

The Japanese have only recently started eating salmon raw in the form of sushi, since the raw fish may contain harmful parasites. However, if you buy from a reputable supplier, the risk of the fish containing anything but natural goodness is minimal. Mix it with lemon juice, onions and tomatoes for a South American style ceviche or cure it with salt, sugar and spices to make Scandinavian gravlax.

For extra flavor, try smoked salmon. Serve it on a bed of lettuce with cream cheese on the side or stack all these ingredients onto a bagel. If you have leftover fish, there's no reason why you should feed it to the cat. Instead, turn it into fish burgers or cakes or puree it into a spread.

There is a myriad of online suppliers of salmon. To choose the best one, check their credentials and read what other customers have to say. Also make sure that they will deliver to your part of the world. Place your order and allow a day or so for delivery directly to your door, then take out the recipe books and let your creative juices flow.
