Pink Salmon 213G
Caught in the cold clear waters off Alaska and Canada, our wild pink salmon is protein-packed and flavour-filled. It's also a natrual source of omega-3 and incredibly versatile, perfect for elevating everything from a salad topping to salmon fishcakes.
Step 1
Bring a large pot of salted water to the boil and cook the tagliatelle according to package instructions. Drain well, reserving a little of the pasta water.
Step 2
Meanwhile, heat the oil in a pan over a medium heat and cook the onion for 5-7 minutes until softened. Add the garlic and cook for 30 seconds longer.
Step 3
Stir in the crème fraîche, peas and lemon zest. Bring to a simmer, then remove from the heat. Add the pasta along with a splash of cooking water. Stir to combine into a glossy sauce, adding more cooking water if needed.
Step 4
Stir in the salmon, watercress and most of the dill. Season and add lemon juice to taste. Top with the remaining dill to serve.

Yes, salmon is good for you. It’s high in protein and low in saturated fat. It contains vitamin D and is one of the best sources of B12. For the calorie-conscious, a single serving of salmon is less than 400 calories.
Of course, salmon is also packed with omega-3, fatty acids the human body can’t produce on its own. Omega-3 has been linked with a decrease in the risk for certain types of cancer, cardiovascular diseases like heart attacks and even dementia.
Try to aim for two portions of seafood in your diet a week and if you aren’t taken any omega-3 supplements, aim to include salmon as one of your portions.
