Air Fryer Salmon

Cultural Context

Air fryer salmon is a modern take on a classic dish, utilizing the air fryer for a healthier cooking method that reduces oil usage while still achieving a crispy exterior. This dish has gained popularity in recent years due to the rise of air frying as a convenient cooking technique that retains moisture and flavor in fish. Salmon is a staple in American cuisine, often celebrated for its rich flavor and nutritional benefits.
