Surprisingly salmon is not all that fishy tasting. In fact if you are eating salmon and it tastes very fishy, there might be something wrong with it. A strong fishy taste when it comes to salmon could indicate that bacteria has started to grow on it and should therefore be avoided completely at the risk of getting food poisoning.

Salmon is one of the few fishes without that “fishy taste” to it, or at least it is very mild and barely noticeable. Salmon can be used in combination with many different other types of food in order to complement and enhance its overall taste.
