Nutritional values

The fine edible fish supplies plenty of omega-3 fatty acids, which among other things act as natural blood thinners and are therefore beneficial to the heart and circulation. Mango and peppers bring a thick portion of vitamin C to the plate.

The higher its quality, the better the salmon tastes, so treat yourself to a farmed salmon with an organic seal - or even better, wild salmon with the label "Caught in the Pacific".
