I can't like salmon...

Sooo......


Don't eat salmon.

Seriously.

No need to eat something if you don't like it. There are plenty of other options that will give you similar nutrition.

I'd like to agree with "soooo ... don't eat salmon"

I don't like red meat. never have, kept trying it, just can't stand it. I don't eat beef, veal or lamb for love or money.

the sky has not fallen.

I just don't eat cooked salmon. I found that trout is an excellent substitute for salmon, in almost any recipe, and I really love it.

If you don't like it, you don't have to eat it.

However, I like it most grilled. I also prefer Atlantic salmon over sockeye salmon.

Here's my favorite way to cook it:

Place it on a piece of aluminum foil. Kick the grill up to about 400. Spray the salmon quickly with some olive oil spray (just enough to make the spices stick). Then, I actually use a burger or steak seasoning on it. I don't like the seasonings they make for fish. I apply seasoning pretty liberally, just to the top side. Roll the aluminum foil sides up some so that you don't lose any juice, and kick it on the grill. Cook until done...I like mine a little extra done on the edges so I cook until the excess spice on the aluminum foil turns black/burned. Then, I know my fish is cooked just the way I like it.

I love salmon...eat it regularly. Best advice I can give is don't eat what you don't like. There are ways to get the benefits of salmon via supplements or other fish.

Olive oil, dried basil,dried parsley, garlic and chopped lemon slices.
Mix oil,basil,parsley and garlic together in a bowl and put salmon fillets in al foil, add the mixture on top then the lemon slices.
Wrap it all up and chuck it the oven. Tastes good also im not sure how much of each to put in lol.

P.S im not a chef.

but seriously... with a dry rub and smoked slowly over low heat

I don't like salmon at all. Most people I know love it. Cedar planked does seem to be a favorite.

Sooo......


Don't eat salmon.

yup.

why force yourself to eat something you don't like? especially since, as you say, you eat other seafoods?

I'm not a big fish eater, on rare ocassions i'll have a piece of salmon and i do eat canned tuna (mostly because it's so darned convenient) and pickled herring once in a blue moon, but that's about it.

There are few foods i really don't like, and i really tried to like them, because they are suppsoedly so healthy (peppers, quinoa and tofu for example), and i decided that if i have such an aversion to them, maybe my body is trying to tell me something.

People she wasnt asking to be talked out of eating it she was asking for ideas so she can branch out and maybe find a way she likes. I hate squash, but in a search for new ways to cook it I found a preparation that I can not only live with but I actually like. I applaud her not closing off a food just because she doesn't like the traditional preparation of it.

Salmon cakes
Salmon cooked or smoked. Use canned if you like.
Diced sautéd onion.
Bacon one piece. I suppose turkey bacon could work but one piece of pork bacon for whole recipe isn't going to kill the calories totals
Garlic minced
Mayo just enough to lightly bind the salmon together. I use the olive oil kind. If you are weirded out by the mayo replace with eggs.
Bread crumbs, season them with old bay, or any poultry or fish friendly spice mixture you like
Combine all ingredients but bread crumbs cold. Which means onions and bacon prepared earlier.
Roll mixture into balls, flatten slightly and roll into the bread crumbs.
You can either bake as is or fry in a pan. The oven method works fine, but I find cooking oven fried items on a cookie rack over the pan helps prevent the one side burning, and such doesn't require flipping.

Salmon cakes can be pretty personal. If you prefer some flavor and not other find the spice mix that you like. I myself like them spiced up in a Mexican spice mix, mix some corn instead of bacon. And eat with pico do gallo. Where my wife prefers the recipe above with a lemon dill sauce. If your a hot wing fanatic. Stick to only garlic and than toss in franks red hot. Salmon is so adaptable I am sure if you adapt it to thing you already like you should find a win or two.

i believe ( ive read it somewhere).. that the only way to preserve the omega oils is by baking the fish... i love cooked salmon only, not canned or raw..

i had some tonight normally i just pop it in some baking paper and foil, and wrap up tightly with some lemon slices, and a touch of salt and pepper..

tonight, i did that but added frozen veggies in the parcle and cooked it all together was yummy!!!

i like mine well done..

i always cook it in the oven... then i have flaked it over cooked pasta with olive oil and garlic to make a easy tasty pasta dish before as well

I rub my salmon with Moroccan spice and cook in George Forman.
Also do a mean spinach and salmon omelette using salmon slices and put it under the omelette and spinach with a little Parmesan in middle..
Salmon is yummy on bagel or English muffin with lite cream cheese....

But...some people just don't like it.... See how you go...on its own it can be quite punchy..... I don't tend to ea salmon without something with it.

Good luck
