Description

Boneless Atlantic salmon fillet is a clean and juicy cut extracted from Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar), one of the most prized salmon species in international cuisine. This cold-water fish is primarily caught in the North Atlantic regions, including the coasts of Canada, Norway, and Scotland, although today it is also farmed in controlled aquaculture facilities to ensure its year-round availability.

The fillet is characterized by its firm texture and mild flavor, with an intense pink hue that is indicative of its natural astaxanthin content, a beneficial antioxidant. Being boneless, it facilitates preparation and consumption, perfectly adapting to various cooking techniques such as grilling, baking, sautéing, or smoking.

Regarding its nutritional properties, Atlantic salmon is an excellent source of omega-3 fatty acids, high-quality protein, B vitamins (especially B12 and niacin), and minerals such as selenium and potassium. These components help promote cardiovascular health, improve brain function, and strengthen the immune system.

In different Latin American countries, boneless Atlantic salmon fillet may also be known simply as salmon fillet or salmon loin, terms that are used interchangeably depending on the local culinary context.

This ingredient is ideal for those looking to prepare nutritious, tasty, and versatile dishes, from ceviches and tartares to baked or grilled plates.
