Tips:

  • To ensure the best flavor and texture, use fresh, high-quality ingredients. Opt for wild-caught salmon for a more sustainable choice.
  • For a crispy and flavorful salad, use a combination of crisp and tender greens, such as romaine lettuce, arugula, and spinach. You can also add other vegetables like grated carrots, celery, or red onion for extra crunch.
  • If you don't have celery or walnuts on hand, try substituting them with other crunchy ingredients like jicama, fennel, or pecans.
  • For a creamy and flavorful dressing, use a combination of mayonnaise, Greek yogurt, and Dijon mustard. Adjust the proportions to achieve your desired consistency and flavor.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan when searing the salmon. Give each piece enough space to ensure even cooking and a crispy crust.
  • To prevent the salmon from sticking to the pan, make sure it is well-coated in oil or butter before searing.
  • Use a gentle touch when tossing the salad to prevent the greens from becoming bruised or wilted.
  • Serve the salad immediately after assembling to enjoy the best flavor and texture.
