If you’re looking for a healthy weeknight dinner, there’s nothing quicker than an easy salmon recipe
There are tons of benefits to eating more seafood, and with a lemon-butter sauce, it looks good and tastes delicious!
But when I pulled my latest salmon dinner out of the oven, it looked less flaky and more white and globby.
If you’ve ever baked or roasted a salmon filet, you’ll know what I’m talking about. Which got me wondering—what exactly is that white stuff on salmon?
To get an expert opinion, I spoke to our Executive Culinary Director Sarah Farmer, who explained that it’s a harmless protein called albumin
According to her, “It’s nothing to be scared of and it’s totally safe to eat, but I think we would all admit – it’s nasty.”
When salmon is raw, you can’t see the albumin inside—but as the fish cooks, it thickens and forms the gooey white stuff you see on salmon skin.
In the search for healthy snacks, we often reach for nuts or dried fruits. However, one of nature's most valuable gifts is dates.
