Advice

When making salmon salad, it's important to choose fresh and high-quality ingredients. Start with a base of fresh greens and then add in other ingredients like diced celery, chopped red onion, capers, and dill. Be creative with your ingredients and add whatever flavors you like. For the salmon, you can use fresh cooked salmon, canned salmon, or smoked salmon. Make sure to flake the cooked or canned salmon into small pieces before adding it to the salad. Finally, don't forget to add a flavorful dressing to tie the flavors together. Consider making a simple vinaigrette or a creamy yogurt dill dressing. Enjoy!
