Canned salmon is readily available, inexpensive and good for you - did you know that unlike canned tuna, salmon has a very high Omega 3 content?
Environmentally friendly with low contamination levels, most of the salmon used for canning comes from Alaska.
The varieties most widely used are the wild sockeye(red) and the less expensive pink salmon.
They are both processed with their bones in, and because the canning process makes the bones soft and edible this provides a useful source of calcium.
The recipes below show just how versatile a can of salmon can be, from summer salmon recipes to easy baked salmon recipes, they can all be made with the minimum of time and effort.
