Salmon, A Popular Fish

Very rich in omega-3 fatty acid and vitamin D, salmon is not just a popular, but also very healthy fish. Additionally it is easy to prepare salmon in different ways, whether using fresh salmon, smoked salmon or canned salmon.

Talking About Salmon 

Salmon

Salmon is the common name for several species of fish of the family Salmonidae. Several other fish in the family are called trout; the difference is often attributed to the migratory life of the salmon as compared to the residential behaviour of trout, a distinction that holds true for the Salmo genus. Salmon live in both the Atlantic (one migratory species Salmo salar) and Pacific Oceans, as well as the Great Lakes (approximately a dozen species of the genus Oncorhynchus).

Typically, salmon are anadromous: they are born in fresh water, migrate to the ocean, then return to fresh water to reproduce. However, there are rare species that can only survive in fresh water habitats. Folklore has it that the fish return to the exact spot where they were born to spawn; tracking studies have shown this to be true but the nature of how this memory works has long been debated.

    Best fish to eat and the easiest to cook. Just ad olive oil and a dash of spice and salt. That's it baby.

    Love your lens.
