Farmed salmon even here in the PacNW are often some ugly Atlantic salmon Franken-fish.
Here's what we do, takes 2 people in the kitchen:
One does the Coho steaks in the usual butter/mayo and dill in a pan.
I'll cut carrots, potatoes, yams, parsnips and beets for chips at 375F in 1" oil.
Then you can turn your back and build a salad thing if you need it.
The chips take 3 mins 30 sec in a seasoned flour to cook through.

Tonight is just Pacific halibut and twice-cooked baked potatoes with salad.
Today in the grocery store is fresh oysters (NOT Pacific) and Steelhead and Cod.
Paralytic Shellfish Poisoning has shut off our entire coastal shellfish industry.

More than 50% of all the fish retail-sold in Canada is crap fish mislabelled as something better.
Fact. You need to see it whole or cut from a reliable source.

Hi,
Its good to check the dates of threads.
This one is approaching two years old. Its good to be enthusiastic, but answering a two year old question with the same answer that was given by other people two years ago isn't a good look. Lets call it an aspect of forum etiquette.
