Wild vs Farmed Salmon — What's the Difference?

Like Grandpa’s smoked salmon or the neighbor’s salmonberry jam, food always tastes better when there’s a story behind it.

To do that story justice, we explain five ways that wild salmon and farmed salmon differ.

Albumin

What's that White Stuff on My Salmon?

Salmon is a delicate protein and albumin is a sign that you may be overcooking your fish. The "low and slow" method helps to keep proteins locked inside your fish.

Crispy Salmon with Hard Cider Sauce

The crisp, slightly bitter cider adds depth and fruitiness to this simple pan sauce which is a perfect balance to the rich salmon. One caveat: cook with cider you want to drink.
