Yes, you generally need to descale salmon before cooking it, especially if you're preparing it with the skin on. The scales can be tough and unpleasant to eat, so removing them ensures a better texture and flavor. You can use the back of a knife or a fish scaler to gently scrape the scales off, starting from the tail and moving towards the head. Make sure to rinse the fish afterward to remove any loose scales.
