There are so many great ways to eat salmon that there's really no way
to ever get bored of it. That, and the fact that salmon is
tremendously healthy for our bodies (with a concentrated mix of
proteins, omega fatty acids, and other minerals), and you have every
reason to include salmon in your diet as regularly and comprehensively
as possible. Don't limit yourself to when salmon is available fresh,
which is only a part of the year; eat it all year round, by buying
canned salmon (which, coincidentally, contains all the same great
nutritional value). Of the different kinds of canned salmon you can
buy, the most versatile and practical is boneless canned salmon, since
you have to do absolutely nothing to it other than remove the lid to
eat it.

What, are you in the trade?

Canned salmon may be poached, it may be cold-smoked, it may be hot
smoked, it may be conserved in fresh water or in the juices it was
cooked in, it may have oil added, and it will likely have some salt
added. What canned salmon does not have-at least when it is wild and
from Alaska, the best possible kind of salmon-is the PCBs and other
dangerous components that farmed salmon has, so it is always important
to make sure you're buying wild canned salmon. Each of the different
styles of preparation mentioned above can also be rendered into
boneless canned salmon, which is great since the gamut of flavors is
broader.

From many years back I've never been able to fathom why canned salman
makes me produce the most god-awful farts known to man for a solid 24
hours or more after the face. It's absolutely a taboo for me to eat.
But smoked salmon, baked, sauteed, fried, sushi--known have such an
effect. In fact nothing else in my dietary universe has such a tragic
response.

All canned salmon is cooked already, so you can eat it right out of
the can. The great thing is that if it's boneless, you can literally
remove the lid and dig in, not having to remove the bones and getting
all messy in the process (or mushing them in with the meat, thereby
losing the texture). In fact, simply opening up some boneless canned
salmon and eating it with cheese and crackers is delicious, though it
is also simple and delicious to add it to salads and stir fries.
Really, there are a ton of ways to prepare boneless salmon right out
of the can or included in elaborate dishes, and you should experiment
and discover just how versatile this exceptional product of the
Alaskan fisheries is.

Did you clip this somewhere or are you the representative of the "Eat
More Salmon" organization?
