How does the salmon attract its prey?

Sockeye salmon have very short lives. They have many different behaviors that help them survive, such as going around in schools, where they trade places so they can all eat and avoid predators, taking turns at the safer places and the places with the most food. They also take the schools to different places depending on the time of day to avoid predators and to find the best food. They can live up to 3 years in freshwater before they migrate to the ocean. Then they spend 1-4 years there, and come back to freshwater to spawn. After spawning, they die.

How long do you cook salmon for?

Once you are ready with all necessary items in place, you start by preheating the grill between medium-high. Next, you need to spread some oil on the rack, grilling basket, or aluminum foil. Grill your fillets until the fish turns opaque. Remember that you will only turn the fish once during the entire grilling process. Now you need to know how long to grill both sides of the salmon. Normally it shouldd take about 8-10 minutes to grill both sides. Ensure that the fire won't touch the salmon when the grilling process takes place.

When is salmon cooked?

If you are asking the oven temp i would say at 350 F is fine. If you have a meat thermometer, i cook salmon to around 160 F so it is still very moist and not overcooked.

Wow....this isn't chicken. If you want your salmon to taste like a well worn tire, then go to 160, otherwise don't let it go past the 145 recommended by most salmon purveyors, and I've seen some recipes from reputable sources go as low as 131 with appropriate rest time afterward. Personally I shoot for 135-140 with 5m rest after cooking.

It is also dependent on the size of the piece. With a small piece, say the less than the size of a lime, for a salmon kebab I've found 140 with just a few minuets rest quite sufficient. I've also had much success with tenting the salmon during the rest period. Simply use a sheet of foil and create a "tent" over the salmon.

I cook fillets at 275F in the oven or on the grill skin side down until internal temp is 135-140. Just when the fat starts oozing out of the top of the salmon. Doesn't get much better than that.

What are facts about salmon?

  1. 1. Salmon migrate up to 4,000 miles from the ocean to freshwater areas to spawn (or lay eggs). They also must swim against very strong ocean currents just to reach freshwater, and then swim upstream against the powerful flow of the river. Additionally, they must leap clear of the water to get above falls, and do all this while avoiding predators - who know they are there and want to catch and eat them. They do all this only to die only minutes after spawning.
  2. They are healthy fish.
  3. 2. They are the state fish of Alaska.

Judge the time by the thickest part of the fillet.

If the fillet is closer to 1 inch thick then cook for 8 minutes on side one and 5 to 6 minutes on side 2.
