Nutritional values

Because it tastes nice and mild, the fine salmon is definitely welcome with children. That's good, because its omega-3 fatty acids promote brain development. Essential oils of fennel and horseradish stimulate the blood circulation of the mucous membranes and the digestive tract.

Those who do not appreciate the taste of fennel so much can replace it with celery.
