Salmon filet has a rich history dating back to ancient times when it was a staple food for indigenous peoples in regions like the Pacific Northwest. Today, it's a beloved dish in fine dining restaurants and home kitchens alike. Renowned chefs like Gordon Ramsay and Jamie Oliver have popularized the dish with their unique recipes, often emphasizing the importance of fresh, high-quality salmon. The Pacific Northwest, particularly Alaska, is known for its exceptional wild-caught salmon, making it an ideal place to savor this dish. The key to a perfect salmon filet lies in the seasoning and cooking method, whether it's grilled, baked, or pan-seared to achieve a crispy skin and tender, flaky flesh.
