Easy and delicious baked salmon – topped with orange and parsley

The orange and parsley mixture makes the salmon delicious.

You have to be careful with the maturity of the baked salmon. The salmon must not be overcooked and dry. Eeva Paljakka

Baked salmon is a very easy dish. All you need is a baking dish, a salmon fillet and a spice mixture. Persillade seasoning contains salt, parsley and garlic in the same jar.

But Paulig’s chef Petteri Kanerva reminds us that if you can’t find the mixture in your cupboard, you can of course sprinkle each spice separately on the salmon.

The acid of the orange goes well with the taste of the salmon. Eeva Paljakka

If salmon with parsley doesn’t excite you, a good combination is, for example, wasabi and sesame seeds.

Salt is often included in spice mixes, so Kanervan recommends checking the ingredients to see if the salt is ready.

– The one jar tactic is easy. But it’s good to mix the spice jar before use, because the heavier spices may be at the bottom, advises Kanerva.

You can season the salmon in advance and leave it in the fridge to wait. Eeva Paljakka

Arrange the slices cut from the washed orange on top of the salmon. If the orange is small, you can arrange the slices nicely on top of the salmon. An orange is more than just a decoration. It gives the salmon the right amount of acid and good taste.
