Blackened Salmon refers to a unique preparation of salmon fillet which involves the utilization of a rich blend of spices and herbs giving it a distinctive, flavorful crust. This classic Southern-style cooking technique is known for its slightly zesty, smoky, and deliciously robust flavor. Cooked over high heat, the salmon fillet is seared perfectly to lock in the juices, ensuring a tender and succulent fish inside. Perfect for health-conscious consumers, the Blackened Salmon provides a heart-healthy option full of proteins, vitamins, and omega-3 fatty acids. Whether served with steamed vegetables, mashed potatoes or used atop fresh, leafy greens for a salad, it offers a versatile dish that could easily perk up your regular lunch or dinner menus.

Expiration & Storage Tips
When does Blackened Salmon expire?
Freshly cooked blackened salmon is best eaten immediately. However, if you have leftovers, they'll keep in the fridge for about 2-3 days. Even then, you should use your own judgment in line with the smell and appearance of the salmon. When it comes to freezing, you can actually keep your blackened salmon in the freezer for up to 6 months. However, after that time, the texture and taste may start to diminish.
How do you tell if Blackened Salmon is bad?
You’ll be able to tell if your blackened salmon has gone bad by its smell and appearance. Fresh salmon has a rich rosy or light pink color and a lightly fishy smell. If it’s starting to turn a dull gray or has a sour or rancid smell, you’ll know it's time to throw it out. Also, if you press the salmon with your finger, and it doesn't bounce back, it's likely past its prime.
Tips for storing Blackened Salmon to extend shelf life
• Store your leftover blackened salmon in an airtight container to avoid it absorbing other smells in the fridge. • When placing your salmon in the freezer, ensure it's tightly wrapped or ideally stored in a vacuum sealed bag. This will protect the salmon from freezer burn. • If you're defrosting frozen salmon, the safest way is to move it to the fridge to defrost slowly over about 24 hours. This will provide the best texture once cooked. • Remember to never refreeze thawed salmon. The constant change in temperature can render the salmon unsafe to eat.
