Glam Kitchen Tips
- Make sure your salmon is pat dry before you season it
- Use low sodium soy sauce – we don’t want this to be salty, we want it to be flavorful
- Fresh garlic is always best but if all you have is jar minced garlic, then do your thing
- Make sure you preheat your air fryer
- Fun fact about me-I don’t really care for end pieces of the salmon filet so I either purchase the long filet and cut the center pieces myself or ask my seafood counter person for center cut salmon
