Cooking Tips
🐟 Salmon
- Cook salmon skin-side down first for crispy skin.
- Don't overcook — salmon is best at 125°F (52°C) for medium.
- Wild-caught salmon has a more intense flavor than farmed.
Nutrition: Rich in omega-3 fatty acids, vitamin D, and protein. One fillet has about 40g protein.
Storage: Use fresh salmon within 2 days. Freeze for up to 3 months.
🫑 Bell Peppers
- Red bell peppers are the sweetest — they're just fully ripened green peppers.
- Roast peppers over an open flame or broiler for a smoky, silky texture.
- Cut peppers from the outside in to avoid the bitter white pith.
Nutrition: Extremely high in vitamin C — one red pepper has 169% of your daily value.
Storage: Refrigerate whole peppers for up to 2 weeks. Cut peppers last 3-5 days.
