Tips and questions
How do I know when baked salmon is done?
It flakes easily with a fork and the centre has just turned opaque (about 50–55 °C inside). Take it out then: it keeps cooking on the hot tray.
Can I use frozen salmon?
Yes. Thaw it overnight in the fridge and pat it dry with kitchen paper so it roasts instead of steaming.
How long does it keep?
Up to 2 days in an airtight container in the fridge. It is good cold, flaked into a salad, rather than reheated.
