What kind of salmon should I use?

Please use wild-caught salmon if possible.

Why the quick cook time?

The air fryer circulates heated air very well, which helps to cook food quickly. Salmon is also a delicate piece of meat and does not require much cooking.

What if I do not have an air fryer?

If you do not have an air fryer, please heat your oven to 400 F and cook the salmon for a similar length of time, adding more minutes as necessary until the salmon is fully cooked.
