If you take it from the fridge and go to Morrisons' fishmonger then they will fillet those for you for free. Cheapest fillet ever (even after taking into account all leftovers i.e head and tail).

Agreed. At least these "salman" are not of the Rushdie variety.

Great price!
I find the salmon at our local is often really poor quality, smells like ammonia and has lost it's colour, just my branch?? :neutral_face:

Apparently Fish farm salmons are fed red pellets colored food to turn the fish red. So basically these fish are artificial salmon. This is what I heard. So dont rely on this.

They might be the wrong colour, but calling them fake is a bit harsh.

Pop it in the dishwasher to cook it - without detergent of course, and wrapped in a double layer of foil...

I heard of that before but always wonders why you would just not steam it?

Dishwashers regulate the temperature to 70-80 degrees which gives you a slower cooking resulting in a soft, moist fish and you don't have to worry about the steamer or fish smell through the house, just pop it in and check timings from various websites (I think a cycle of 90mins did a fish approximately this size for me). I've actually tried this after being very dubious and it did indeed give a very nice result. Added lemon, Dill, peppercorns and white wine.

Yes, they are fed carotinoids (which are in their diets naturally) otherwise they would be grey like mullet.
Worse are all the other chemicals which are put in there to destroy the sea lice which thrive due to the intensive farming nature of the ponds (worst are the organo-phosphates). Having said that, we do eat a lot of salmon!
