@zure hehe.. I answered that here, I'll repaste it for thread integrity:

To answer more seriously I have two ways of cooking salmon depending on its source.

1) if its frozen, not wild, or doesnt have the skin, then i tend to just throw it in with fried rice and make a lemon-nut sauce for it

2) if its fresh, wild caught, skin on, then the only way is to just sautee it with just enough oil so it doesnt stick, give it a nice crispy outside and barely cooked inside, and top it with very little other than some lemon and cracked pepper. You can do a sauce , in which case I'd do a lemon sauce of some sort or another, but its really not needed IMO.

@freemo lol. This thread is golden

@zure Happy to oblige

@freemo I also just simply season salmon. Doesn’t need much at all. My current way of cooking it is to just do a salt and pepper rub and cook it the same as you. Gotta get it nice and crispy

@zure If you've got a good piece of salmon (which is so important and often you dont if you dont get it fresh and wild) then yea it practically cooks itself.

If you find you need to season or sauce up your salmonthen that just means you arent getting good salmon.

@freemo lol. Idk the quality but I get mine from Publix. Supposed to be fresh and never frozen. Idk about the wild though

@zure If it doesnt advertise that its wild then its farm raised... Farm raised is ok, better than frozen and farm raised, but wild is way better. even the coloration is different.
