HOW LONG TO BAKE SALMON
Bake for 4 - 6 minutes per 1/2-inch (1 cm) thickness of
fillet. Baking time depends on the thickness of your salmon
fillets.
·
MEDIUM: 4
minutes PER 1/2-inch.
·
WELL DONE: 6
minutes per 1/2-inch.
HOW TO KNOW WHEN SALMON IS READY
Check the thickest part of your salmon fillets with a fork. When
the flesh easily flakes or softly falls apart, it's done.
You can also use an instant read thermometer to check for
doneness. The USDA recommends a minimum internal temperature of 145°F (61°C),
which should be taken inside the the thickest part of the salmon.
Leftovers
Refrigerate for up to 3 days in an airtight container. Gently
reheat in the microwave.
What temp should salmon be cooked?
Bake your salmon, uncovered, at 425°F
(220°C) on the middle shelf of your oven.
Benefits of Salmon
Salmon of all types generally live in cold, clean water. The extremely cold ocean temperature allows salmon skin to develop a high concentration of omega-3 fatty acids to keep the salmon warm in the ocean. Omega-3’s are healthy fats with so many health benefits. Many of our points below are related to these super nutrients. So we had to kick off this list by noting that any food that is a good source of Omega-3s should be at the top of your grocery list for health benefits.
SALMON SKIN KEEPS YOUR HEART HEALTHY:
Omega-3 fatty acids help reduce the risk of heart diseases and hypertension. It’s said that Omega-3’s create healthy blood pressure which also puts less strain on your heart.
Omega-3’s protect the brain from degeneration and promote the growth of healthy cells in the body. This can improve everything from brain frog, to depression, to brain diseases and degeneration. You can read more about the Omega-3 brain benefits HERE.
As you probably know, protein plays many essential roles in the human body. Salmon skin is an incredible source of protein, in fact it is sometimes 50% protein. Protein is made up of amino acids which support your brian, blood, muscles, skin, hair, and even your nails. Protein helps support healthy muscles, helps your body heal after an injury, plays a role in anti-aging, and is even great for weight loss.
