Nutritional values

The grilled salmon scores with its rich omega-3 fatty acids. These healthy fats keep our heart healthy by protecting the blood vessels and positively influencing the cholesterol level. In addition, the ability to concentrate is improved, as the fatty acids improve the transmission of stimuli in the brain. The fish also provides us with vitamin D, which among other things ensures strong bones.

In this recipe the salmon is grilled in the oven - but you can also prepare the fish on a grill. To do this, wrap each salmon individually in aluminium foil with some vegetables, close the packages well and place them on the hot grill until the salmon is cooked through. Try stewed rice with chilli and onion as a side dish to the grilled salmon
. In the supermarket or at the fish butcher the question of wild salmon or fish from aquaculture arises.
Both have their advantages, wild salmon for example contains more vitamin D, less fat, but is often frozen for longer and infested with nematodes (parasites). For many people, the ecological point of view also plays a role here, the key word being overfishing. The farmed salmon is cheaper, tastier but often contaminated with ethoxyquin.
