Cooking Tips

  • Make sure to mince the ginger finely to ensure it distributes evenly in the marinade.
  • If you prefer a sweeter flavor, you can add a bit more honey to the marinade.
  • To check if the salmon is cooked through, insert a fork into the thickest part of the fillet and gently twist. If it flakes easily, it's done.
  • You can also grill the salmon instead of baking it for a smoky flavor.

Storage and Serving

  • Leftover Walnut Ginger Salmon can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
  • To reheat, place the salmon in a microwave-safe dish and heat on medium power for 1-2 minutes, or until warmed through.
  • Serve the reheated salmon with a fresh squeeze of lemon juice to brighten the flavors.
