At this point, you will also notice that the salmon flakes easily.
So many vegetables go well with salmon, whether you swap the broccoli or add another.
Theyll be great no matter which method you use to cook them.
Adding it to a salad is one of the best ways to use leftover salmon.
Even if the salmon has dried out, the dressing will help moisten it and enhance its flavor.
The aim is to prevent the fish from drying out.
