With record sockeye runs last<br />
summer, the excitement<br />
around salmon is palpable.<br />
<strong>BC</strong> chefs are now cooking with all of<br />
the salmon species to showcase the true<br />
flavours of our waters. Even the once<br />
destined-for–the-can pink salmon is being<br />
used by top local chefs with delicious<br />
results. Light in colour and delicate<br />
in flavour, pink salmon is perfect for<br />
poaching or pan-frying. Whether you<br />
“think pink” or prefer a “spring fling”<br />
here are some easy salmon recipes to<br />
show off <strong>BC</strong>’s finest swimmers.<br />
