How to Store McCormick Salmon Recipe?
Nobody wants to become sick from eating leftover fish, so it is wise to store it properly and consume it as soon as possible. Although cooked salmon can be refrigerated or frozen, the flavor and texture will not be the same as freshly cooked fish. So instead of merely reheating a fillet, flake it and use it in chowder, curry, salmon spread, or salmon burgers.
Pro Tips
- Always smell the fish! Avoid salmon that has a strong fishy stench. Instead, it should smell like sea or saltwater. As a general guideline, buy it fresh when you plan to cook it.
- If you choose a more traditional cut, such as a steak or a fillet, ensure the pieces are all the same size. It helps you cook all the pieces evenly at once.
- Slow-roasting salmon is a great way to prepare it without drying out.
- Gently cooking salmon at low oven (225°F to 250°F) or in a slow cooker enhances its taste.
- Not sure how long to bake your fillet for? A good rule of thumb is to bake the salmon for 4–6 minutes every half-inch. For those who prefer their salmon rare, four minutes is optimal, while six minutes is sufficient. The middle of the fish should be pink and somewhat transparent.
