Broiled salmon

Salmon is a fish that has been consumed by humans for thousands of years. The first recorded use of salmon was in the year 300 BC by the Greeks. The Romans later began to eat salmon as well, and it soon became a popular dish throughout Europe. In the Middle Ages, salted and smoked salmon were common, and by the Renaissance, salmon was being cooked in a variety of ways, including being baked, grilled, and broiled.

The first recorded recipe for broiled salmon comes from England in the year 1790. This recipe called for the salmon to be rubbed with salt and pepper, then broiled over a fire. Since then, there have been many variations of this recipe, with different herbs and spices being used. Today, broiled salmon is a popular dish around the world, and is often served with rice, vegetables, and a sauce.

Advice

When making broiled salmon, it is important to use fresh ingredients, season with herbs and spices, and cook the salmon correctly. Start by brushing the salmon with a light coating of olive oil and season it with salt, pepper, and any other herbs or spices that you like. Once the salmon is seasoned, place it on a baking sheet and broil it in the oven for about 10 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through. Make sure to keep an eye on the salmon as it broils to ensure it does not overcook and become dry. If desired, you can also top the salmon with a butter-lemon sauce for added flavor.
