Nutrition Facts Atlantic Salmon

Fish

Atlantic salmon provides high-quality protein and the long-chain omega-3 fatty acids EPA and DHA, together with vitamin B12, vitamin D, selenium, and potassium. Choose fillets with firm, resilient flesh, an even pink-to-orange color, and a mild fresh smell rather than a sharp fishy odor. Refrigerate at 40°F/4°C or below and use within two days, or freeze promptly.

Interesting fact

The pink pigment is not a warning sign

Astaxanthin is a carotenoid pigment that salmon obtain through food and deposit in their flesh. Wild salmon obtain it through the aquatic food chain; farmed salmon receive approved carotenoid sources in feed. At the amounts naturally present in salmon, the pigment itself is not considered a sign that the fish is harmful.
