What sea are you fishing in for your Valentine's meal? If you want to serve up a delicious, healthy, and 'pink' main course, consider cooking up some delicious heart-healthy salmon.
With all the concern over mercury and toxicity levels in our oceans and the development of 'Aquaculture' or 'fish farms', shopping for salmon can be a bit, let's say, 'fishy'. Purchasing salmon from a farm sounds odd afterall. We all know that consuming fish and salmon can be an excellent way to get the unsaturated fats called omega-3 fatty acids which are good for both cardiovascular health and skin health. Fish, especially salmon, is also a great source of lean protein and may help reduce symptoms of arthritis and other joint pain. A fat loss review can help you establish a clear summarize of what you require to focus on to complete your fat reduction purpose if you're a rookie; or serve as a reminder for these who are at an advanced or more improve phase of their weight-loss program. Promptly after are seven steps that can serve as tips for your own weight loss plan. The first thing that one must understand is that losing weight and losing fat is not the same thing. Many weight loss programs have tricked people into wondering that it is the same, but most diets and weight loss plans only work by producing a person's body to reduce more muscle flesh and water than actual body fat, more help please visit The Fat Loss Factor. The USDA recommends that we all increase our consumption of fish and seafood. However it is the type of fish and salmon and where it comes from that will make the biggest difference to our diet.
Why are fish now raised in fish farms as opposed to being caught by fisherman in our oceans? Increasing demands on wild fisheries by commercial fishing has led to overfishing. As a result, fish farming offers another solution to the increasing demand for fish.
There have been many reports, however, there are significantly higher levels of contaminents associated with serious health risks in farmed salmon if it is not done correctly. Specifically, high levels of cancer causing PCB's (polychlorilinated biphenyls) and Dioxins (a group of hundreds of chemicals). Americans concerned about their health need to do some homework and be educated on what type of salmon to purchase.
The most popular types of salmon are Atlantic and Alaskan (Pacific), although you will also find Norwegian salmon. Most of the research shows that free-ranging Alaskan salmon are recognized as the purest salmon around and therefore the best salmon to consume. Not all farm raised fish is bad. Places like Whole Foods Market carries farm raised salmon but adheres to strict quality standards http://www.wholefoodsmarket.com/pdfs/WholeFoodsMarket_FarmedSalmonStandards.pdf
What about the different species of salmon? While the five species of Wild Alaskan salmon all have great flavor and share a general outward resemblance, they vary in size, flesh texture, color, and flavor. The three most popular Wild Alaska Salmon are:
- Chinook Salmon - the largest species of Salmon with richly flavored, firm flesh ranging from ivory white to deep red in color. Chinook Salmon has the strongest flavor due to its high oil content and tends to be the most sought after of all salmon for grilling and bar-b-queing.
- Sockeye Salmon - richer and leaner; weighing 6- 13 lbs and are the firmest and most streamlined of all species of Pacific salmon. Also known as Red Salmon, Sockeye is the most sought-after salmon species for its very mild flavor and beet red color to its flesh.
- Coho Salmon - weigh up to 22 lbs and along with their great flavor, they have a delicate texture and medium red flesh.
Here in Colorado Springs you can find Wild Alaskan Salmon at Rocky Mountain Natural Foods, Sammy's Organics, and Whole Foods Market. You can also order fresh, dried, and canned salmon from www.VitalChoice.com.
Serve up your Valentine some heart-healthy Wild Alaskan Salmon this Valentine's Day! If you're lacking cooking skills, start with a package of pre-made stuffed salmon and pair it with colorful vegetables, black pepper and sea salt. Pair it with jasmine white rice for a light, delicious, healthy meal that will be sure to impress!
