I so love fish, especially salmon. I love it even more than meat. And you knew how much you can cook from it, based only on cooking methods?

It can be salt salmon, baked salmon, steamed, boiled, salmon stew. A separate pleasure is the preparation of salmon according to different cultural traditions. Each country has its own special dish of fish.

Spicy thick salmon stew is usually cooked and served in clay pots. Moqueca provides for the use of white fish, but in this recipe, we will focus on salmon. A simple and quick recipe to cook will surely appeal to lovers of fish dishes.
