Tips & Tricks (5)

Drain and Flake Salmon Properly 🐟
Drain canned salmon thoroughly and remove all bones and skin, then flake gently with a fork to create ideal taco-sized pieces that won't fall apart during assembly.
Toast Your Tortillas First 🔥
Warm tortillas directly over a gas flame or in a dry skillet for 10-15 seconds per side to enhance flavor, improve pliability, and prevent them from tearing when filled.
Balance Your Mango Salsa 🥭
Cut mango into small, uniform dice and dress it with lime juice and salt just before serving to prevent oxidation and maintain the fresh, bright flavor that complements the salmon.
Bloom Cumin in Oil First 🌿
Heat cumin in olive oil for 30 seconds before mixing with the salmon to unlock its essential oils and intensify the spice flavor without adding extra seasoning.
Create a Quick Curing Step ⏱️
Mix diced red onion and jalapeño with lime juice and kosher salt 10 minutes before serving to soften the vegetables and create a quick-pickled condiment that cuts through richness.
