About Fish, salmon, Atlantic, farmed, cooked, dry heat
Atlantic salmon is the pink, richly flavored fish that has become a weeknight staple — most of it now farmed, which keeps it widely available and consistent. Its higher fat content makes it forgiving to cook and gives it that buttery, satisfying texture.
It's a nutritional heavyweight: one of the best sources of the long-chain omega-3 fats (EPA and DHA) tied to heart and brain health, alongside excellent complete protein, vitamin D, vitamin B12 and selenium. Farmed salmon is typically even higher in total fat — and omega-3s — than wild.
Health bodies often recommend a couple of portions of oily fish a week, and salmon is the easiest, most palatable way for many people to get there.
