Column: Food for Thought - SALMON TACOS
The key to this dish is the freshest salmon you can get your hands on and the local fisho can help with that.
Good salmon should smell like fish but not fishy. Sounds confusing? Well, the difference is entirely on the quality of the smell it produces. Good fish produces a rather gentle and rich smell. Bad fish, on the other hand, tends to produce a terrible stench.
Fresh salmon tends to produce a wonderful smell that might easily remind you of the sea. It’s a mild scent which will not arouse suspicions; on the contrary, a bad fishy smell tends to be pungent. This is because as salmon decomposes, it starts to produce an ammonia-like substance. This smell tends to be quite strong and, therefore, is difficult to ignore.
Trust your instinct. If your spider sense is tingling, then listen to it. It is always better to be safe than sorry.
When I lived with my wife in Queenstown, New Zealand for two years, I was amazed to see salmon and trout roam wild in the pristine environment. You can see huge salmon.
