Add this to any marinade and I promise you it will tenderize the meat. And yes I used to be a Chef. Just one of many carefully performed tests which suggest otherwise. https://www.cooksillustrated.com/how_tos/5562-marinating-myths Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I received that for my plate I would be sending it back! Farmed salmon (the majority of salmon you eat) is naturally grey in color. They add stuff to the feed that turns them to the pink salmon color. It's more expensive to make the salmon darker in color. It doesn't really effect the taste and is primarily an aesthetic thing. Most of the really deep orange-pink salmon you eat is also farmed, just given more of the coloring agent. https://qz.com/358811/heres-why-your-farmed-salmon-has-color-added-to-it/ Edited June 10, 2019 by UnorigionalName Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would still consider this to be a quality issue as most individuals still expect the salmon to have an orangeish/pink color to it. Appearance accounts for 75 percent of an individual's perception of quality. There is a saying in the restaurant world when it comes to presentation "your eyes eat the food before your mouth ever tastes it" 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
