Yesterday we smoked some fresh spring salmon purch Yesterday we smoked some fresh spring salmon purchased from YYSeafood in the new @calgaryfarmersmarketyyc West. Spring salmon is a fish my dad caught every summer we lived in Terrace, BC. The largest he ever caught was 60 lbs. It's salmon season right now and every year I love the obligatory photos my friends post of the salmon they catch. 🐟

Salmon Tip: smell it before you buy it. It should not smell fishy. If it dies, it's old.

DM for our 50+ yr old family recipe for smoking salmon
