What foods do you need for a delicious salad? Let's start with the fish. It is best to purchase fresh salmon. The color of the meat should be bright pink, soft coral or almost orange. This diversity speaks for the many types of fish. But what shades should not be in fish meat are blue, greenish, purple, lilac. The second indicator of fish freshness is smell. Salmon may not yet change in appearance, but if it has already lain on the counter, then you will feel an unpleasant smell. Fresh fish almost does not smell, but if you have a special sense of touch, then you will catch the smell of the sea. The third indicator that the salmon is fresh is the quality of the meat, which can be assessed visually. Look at the slice. Fish meat should be firm and firm. As soon as it begins to exfoliate, it means that an irreversible process of decomposition has already started.
