This weekend we will have Wild Alaska Seafood and Salmon at the Carbondale Community Farmers Market. And how, might you ask, does Alaska qualify as local here in Southern Illinois? Think of it this way (as fisherman Tony says), “You buy your produce from the farmer, why not buy your fish from the fisherman?” There's not better way to get seafood here in the midwest than from dedicated fishermen and producers like Tony and Heather.
Salmon is an interesting addition to the market this time of year. Salmon is an excellent source of omega 3's and many essential nutrients and vitamins including Vitamins A, C, D and E, niacin and Vitamin B-12, all of which work together to be an amazing boost against winter ailments, and even seasonal affective disorder. To learn more about how eating fish can improve your health and mood, check out the article from Eating Well below.
Buy fresh fish can be intimidating if you've never cooked with it before. I've attached some links below for how to prepare salmon and some tasty recipes. Hope to see you at the market this weekend!
