Salmon Salad
Regular readers know that my website is dominated by Brown Foods. Think – curries, stews, gravies, roasts. Brown, brown, brown! Delish, delish, delish! 😂 I simply share the food I truly love. I don’t share food because it photographs well ….though I really do try to pimp up all my brown foods with a teeny sprinkle of parsley!! So sharing something as colourful and vibrant looking as this Salmon Salad is a real treat. Healthy food that’s UNBELIEVABLY DELISH! This is a great salad for entertaining all year round!
What you need for Salmon Salad
Here’s what goes in the Salmon Salad. Feel free to switch out the salad items to what you have / like! Edamame are soybeans, an Asian ingredient that has become kind of trendy nowadays! It tastes kind of like peas – and has a similar texture too – and it’s served in the pod at Japanese and modern Asian restaurants as a starter to nibble, and often appears in modern Asian salads and things like Poke bowls.
Salmon Salad Dressing
I use an Asian Ginger Sesame Dressing for this salmon salad. It adds a ton of flavour PLUS you get the added bonus of less oil – Asian dressings usually have a lower ratio of oil to vinegar compared to Western dressings. Olive oil might sound like a strange ingredient for an Asian dressing, but you can’t taste it and I prefer using olive oil where I can because it’s better for you than vegetable oil and other usual cooking oils. But you can really use any neutral flavoured oil you want.
How to make Salmon Salad
Sear > shake > drizzle > toss > devour. Simple!
You’ll love this Salmon Salad for the variety of flavours and textures, the golden seared salmon that’s perfectly cooked on the inside, and that wickedly delicious Asian Ginger Sesame Dressing that can make any salad taste fabulous! You’ll also love that this truly is one of those salads that will keep you satisfied – the salmon, edamame and soy beans add bulk and keep you full. I think this is a great salad to serve to guests because it looks so fabulous – but it also delivers in the flavour department as well. It’s not just a pretty face! 😂 – Nagi x
