ORANGE-GINGER GLAZED SALMON
Salmon is my version of fast food. It's already so wonderfully flavorful on its own that I don't have to put much effort into it. A brush of oil and a sprinkle of salt and pepper, plus a few minutes in a hot oven or skillet and dinner is ready. In this recipe I whisk together marmalade, soy sauce and some freshly grated ginger, then I add a squeeze of fresh orange juice, pour it over the salmon, and then into the oven it goes. The result is sticky, sweet, tangy and oh so flavorful!

Tips:
- Pick the freshest salmon you can find. Fresh salmon will have a bright orange-pink color and firm flesh. Avoid any salmon that looks dull or has a slimy texture.
- Make sure the salmon is cooked through before serving. The best way to check is to insert a fork into the thickest part of the salmon. If the salmon flakes easily and is opaque throughout, it is cooked through.
- Don't overcook the salmon. Overcooked salmon will be dry and tough. Cook the salmon just until it is cooked through to preserve its delicate flavor and texture.
- Use a flavorful glaze. The glaze is what will give the salmon its delicious flavor. Be sure to use a glaze that you enjoy the taste of.
- Serve the salmon immediately. Salmon is best served immediately after it is cooked. This will ensure that it is hot and juicy.
