Hi…most salmon pieces come with skin on… are you placing these on top rice with skin on?
I usually buy skinless salmon for this recipe. If your salmon has skin, you can remove it after cooking, if you prefer.
Amazing as always, you are the best!!!
So happy you loved it, Anna!! Thank you!
I’d like to make 4 servings. Should I multiply the ingredients x4?
Yes, exactly.
Do I reduce cook time if using fresh salmon?
You can reduce the cook time to 2-3 minutes for fresh salmon, depending on how you like it cooked.
