Salmon is highly valued due to its nutritional value, providing essential omega-3 fatty acids, high-quality protein and a variety of vitamins and minerals.
There are seven known species of Pacific salmon found in North American and Asian waters, and one species of Atlantic salmon, which is mainly farmed.
The term ‘salmon’ derives from the Latin word ‘salmo,’ which is said to have originated from ‘salire’, which means ‘to leap’. This seems fitting considering salmon can jump up to two metres to cross obstacles in rivers. | Each species has slightly different characteristics but typically salmon has firm, succulent flesh, and is red to orange in colour. This is from a diet rich in shellfish and a high oil content. |
