How to Pick Salmon

Always look for a salmon that is firm to the touch, but bounces back if you press the flesh. The cut shouldn't have any liquid pooling around it and the meat should also be translucent and moist.

How to Store Salmon

Salmon can be stored in its original packaging for up to two days. For optimal freshness, unwrap the salmon, gently pat it dry, and wrap the filet tightly in plastic wrap. Fish like salmon usually fare best at the bottom of the refrigerator.

Tip

How to Freeze Salmon

It is important to capture as much moisture as possible. Wet the salmon, wrap tightly in plastic wrap, and wrap again with aluminum foil. Place the filets in a freezer bag and keep away from the door to ensure a consistent temperature. If the salmon has been previously frozen, do not re-freeze.

Serving Fish and Spilling Tea with the Season 10 Queens of Rupaul's Drag Race

For these 10 queens, life is literally a drag that can be heightened by sips and bites, both nostalgic and satisfying, after a tiring and long gig. Since this year's outspoken cast members are experts at serving fish (drag slang for looking ultra feminine) and spilling tea (sharing gossip), we thought it'd be fun to take these expressions literally and ask for their favorite fish dishes and tea flavors.
