Chef's Tip

Simple baked salmon is all about quality seafood and careful cooking. Baking the salmon gently helps preserve its rich, buttery texture while keeping the flesh moist and flaky in the center. Fresh herbs, fennel, radish, and lemon add brightness and crunch, balancing the natural richness of the premium king salmon without overpowering its clean flavour.
