Cooking Tips

• You can marinate the salmon in the vinaigrette for 30 minutes to 1 hour before baking for even more flavor.
• If you prefer a sweeter vinaigrette, you can add more honey to taste.
• To check if the salmon is cooked, insert a fork into the thickest part of the fillet and gently twist. If it flakes easily, it is done.
• Leftover salmon can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
