A Salmon Cookbook for the Arctic

Abstract

While salmon have been harvested for generations in some areas of the Canadian Arctic, salmon harvests are generally increasing across northern Canada. More species of salmon are being harvested in more places and in higher abundances in recent years. Accordingly, more northerners are eating more salmon. People new to salmon as food are now learning how to prepare, preserve, and cook salmon in the Arctic. This cookbook shares recipes from those people who have enjoyed eating salmon for a long time and from those who are just new to eating salmon so that everyone benefits from enjoying this yummy food.
