The batter was completely devoid of flavor and just tasted like fried crunch. We couldn't even pick up the taste of salt. And the fillets themselves were just as tasteless. These may crisp up well in the oven or air fryer, but a passable texture doesn't make up for flavorless fish, no matter how much tartar sauce you slather over it.
After years of making salmon recipes, I can finally say: I know a thing or two about how to cook this popular fish! I used to become frustrated by salmon that came out "fishy" tasting and mushy (has this happened to you?). So I started on a quest to nail based baked salmon, then moved on to different cooking methods and flavor combinations. As I went along, luckily I found my family loved these recipes, too.
