About this course:

As one of the most popular finned fish consumed in the U.S., salmon is nutritious and delicious. In this course, we explore the history of salmon and why today’s farmed salmon isn’t the same fish that once swam up rivers from California to Alaska to spawn. We learn how to shop for the healthiest and safest salmon available, and we taste a variety of salmon recipes, from the instructor’s favorites to salmon candy. Join Sharon Boorstin, whose food-writing career was inspired by her father, a leader in the canned-salmon industry in Seattle, Washington.
