What are the differences between the taste of rainbow trout and salmon?

The difference between fish and meat. Rainbow trout.

The color of the meat is light orange, and its fat lines are narrow and not very noticeable. The color of the salmon meat is brighter and orange-red, and the stripes on its body are wider, in fact, the back** with less oil is higher than the belly. It's not right to look at the color, first of all, the seller won't show you the fish, just from the color of the fish, the Atlantic.

The difference in the appearance of salmon and Norwegian salmon is very small, and many people say that the light color is fake, but in fact, it is a cottage of cottages, which is very obvious.

Rainbow trout belong to freshwater fish.

One of them, usually living in North America, the west coast of the Pacific Ocean, Heilongjiang and other places; Salmon, on the other hand, is a marine fish that usually lives in the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans. The nutritional value of salmon is higher than that of rainbow trout. Salmon has orange-red flesh, so farmers add astaxanthin to the feed of rainbow trout.

So the rainbow trout turned orange-red flesh. Trout is not as tender as salmon, so it is cut into thin slices as much as possible, while authentic salmon is generally cut thick and fast.

Norwegian salmon has a wider grain because it lives in the Atlantic Ocean and has a higher fat content, which is reflected in the wide white lines with blurred edges. Rainbow trout have little fat, so the lines are thin and the edges are very hard, that is, the red and white are obvious. The biggest feature of salmon is its fat and fat, especially in artificially farmed salmon, the red and white fat layer is its signature feature, and the fat layer of rainbow trout is significantly worse than that of salmon, so it does not have a melt-in-mouth taste.

The former is transported ashore by a nearby fishing boat, and the latter is transported tens of thousands of miles, and it is transported by air! What's more, due to the increasing pollution of seawater, many European and American consumers who like salmon have begun to switch to Qinghai-Tibet.

The higher rainbow trout - the lowest altitude, the rainbow trout has less fat content, his lines are thin, the edges are harder, after the meat slice is cut, the red and white texture is particularly obvious, the fat content of salmon is relatively high, its meat color is orange yellow, its lines are relatively wide, the edges are soft.

Salmon can be cut very thick when cut, the mouth is firm and full, the fish oil is plump and has the feeling of melting the mouth, full of elasticity, and when chewing, there will be a feeling of meat constantly squeezing the teeth and mouth, but rainbow trout does not have this taste.

Salmon and rainbow trout have different appearances and tastes, first of all, the white stripes on salmon slices are usually thicker and more obvious, while the white veins of rainbow trout are thinner and do not look obvious.

Secondly, salmon has a softer and more tender taste, while rainbow trout has a relatively hard taste.

The taste of rainbow trout and salmon is somewhat similar, but salmon is better, salmon has a sweeter and softer taste, rainbow trout does not taste as sweet as salmon, it is more chewy than salmon, it will have a little earthy taste, and the feeling of returning to nature.

Rainbow trout are mainly red and transparent, but salmon is a saltwater fish and has a fresher flesh, so there is a clear difference in appearance between the two fish.

The texture of salmon is relatively wide, the fat texture is coarse, the surface of rainbow trout is dark, the taste of salmon will be fuller and softer, the meat is fat, and the rainbow trout will shake more chai.

The difference lies in the different spines, different nutritional values, and different **. Personally, I prefer salmon because it doesn't have a lot of spines.

The differences between rainbow trout and salmon are as follows:

1. Species classification.

1. Rainbow trout: Rainbow trout is an important freshwater aquaculture species, which belongs to the animal kingdom, chordates, radial-finned fishes, salmonids, salmonidae, and Pacific salmon in biological classification, and is named after the adult fish with a rainbow-like brown-red longitudinal stripe along the lateral line.

2. Salmon: Salmon is the transliteration of salmon (salmon), salmon in the narrow sense refers to Atlantic salmon, and salmon in the broad sense also includes sockeye salmon (sockeye salmon), coho salmon (silver salmon), dog salmon (salmon), king salmon (salmon), etc.

2. Morphological characteristics.

1. Rainbow trout: The body of the trout is spindle-shaped, slightly flattened, the mouth is large, the snout is round and blunt, the scales are small and round, there is a brownish-red longitudinal band like a rainbow on the side of the body, the base of the dorsal fin is short, there are small fat fins behind the dorsal fin, the pectoral fin is medium, the pelvic fin is small, the back and the top of the head are blue-green, yellow-green or brown, the body sides and abdomen are silvery-white, white or gray-white, and the whole body is irregularly distributed with small black spots.

2. Salmon: The body of salmon is spindle-shaped, slightly flattened, the head length is slightly equal to the body height, the mouth is at the end of the mouth, the mouth is large, the maxilla extends to the back edge of the eye is beak-shaped, the upper and lower jaws and vomer are toothed, the base of the dorsal fin is short, there is a fat fin behind the dorsal fin, the pectoral fin is medium, the pelvic fin is small, all fins except the fat fin have black edges, and the fish body has blue and red spots in fresh water, which becomes silver-blue after entering the seawater.

3. Habitat environment.

1. Rainbow trout: Rainbow trout like to inhabit fresh water with clean water, low water temperature, abundant dissolved oxygen and abundant flow, the most suitable water temperature is 16 18, the critical water temperature for feeding is 7 24, and the water temperature is lower than 7 or higher than 24 and gradually stops feeding.

2. Salmon: Salmon has two types: land-sealed and migratory, of which the land-sealed type lives in lakes that are completely isolated or almost completely isolated from the sea, while the migratory type lays eggs in freshwater rivers and rivers through the sea, and the eggs hatch into juveniles and then return to the seawater for fattening.

4. Feeding habits.

1. Rainbow trout: Rainbow trout is a carnivorous fish, in which the fry stage mainly feeds on zooplankton and aquatic insects, and the juvenile and adult fish stage mainly feeds on fish, crustaceans, benthic animals, aquatic insects, etc., and also swallows a small number of plant branches, leaves, seeds, etc.

2. Salmon: Salmon is a carnivorous fish, in which the fry stage mainly feeds on benthic organisms and aquatic insects, the juvenile and adult fish mainly feed on small fish such as jade tendon fish and herring, and the migratory salmon no longer feeds after entering fresh water during the breeding period.

The species are different, the nutrients are different, the eating methods are different, and the ** is different.

1. Species differences

Salmon: It is a group of salmon species of the salmonidae salmonidae of the order Salmonidae, which usually lives in the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans, and is also produced in small quantities in Japan.

Rainbow trout: It is a rainbow trout species of the Pacific salmon subfamily Salmonidae of the order Salmoniformes, which is a kind of freshwater fish, usually living in North America, the west coast of the Pacific Ocean, Heilongjiang and other places.

2. Differences in nutritional content

Salmon is a type of marine fish, while rainbow trout is a kind of freshwater fish, the main components of both are water, protein, fat, minerals and vitamins, etc., but the unsaturated fatty acids in marine fish are higher than the content of unsaturated fatty acids in freshwater fish, so the nutritional value of salmon is higher than that of rainbow trout.

3. Differences in eating methods

Salmon: It is usually eaten raw, sushi, fried, stewed, stewed, stewed, etc., and can also be eaten as a dish like Chinese food.

Rainbow trout: It is usually eaten in stew, porridge, decoction, etc.

4. Differences

Salmon: Its ** is usually 180 yuan per kilogram, and there are certain differences according to the species, origin and region.

Rainbow trout: It is usually 30-50 yuan per kilogram, which is much lower than that of salmon.

1. Rainbow trout is a freshwater fish, and salmon is a saltwater fish.

2. Salmon meat is delicate, and the fish meat has a special aroma, which is more suitable for making sashimi than rainbow trout.

Rainbow trout meat has no aroma.

3. Salmon can reach more than one meter in length, while rainbow trout is significantly smaller.

A complete list of rainbow trout practices.

1. Rainbow trout sashimi.

The sashimi made of rainbow trout is very different from the salmon we often eat, in fact, rainbow trout and salmon belong to the same salmon family, but not the same genus, rainbow trout is in the salmon genus.

Salmon is pink in color, clear in texture, and has thick and tender meat to eat; Rainbow trout, on the other hand, are white, cut into nearly transparent slices, and have a somewhat crispy flesh. In short, each has its own merits.

Not all fish can be eaten raw, other fish are sliced and crushed, while rainbow trout is not broken because of the environment in which it grows. There are also rainbow trout from Shandong, most of which are cut into thicker slices to hide their clumsiness.

The fillets of rainbow trout have a crispy and tender feel and are rich in oil, making them smooth to eat. In the rainbow trout restaurant in Huairou, most of them are not particular about dipping sauces, generally ordinary soy sauce + bagged green mustard, and I feel that there is no fine dipping sauce in Japanese cuisine. Large-scale restaurants such as Lamor Mountain Resort are more particular.

2. Grilled rainbow trout.

There are three ways to bake rainbow trout, namely: whole roast, section roast, and tin foil roast. The shape of the whole roast is beautiful, the taste of the section roast is the best, and the tin foil roast is the most imaginative.

Roasting whole is the most primitive method. Cumin and chili noodles are placed on the roast when grilled, and it tastes a bit like Xinjiang barbecue. In this grilling method, the skin of the fish is the best, the flavor is strong and crispy, and the meat is too thick, and the taste is slightly bland.

A fish is at least one and a half catties or two catties, and the whole roast is really a bit violent, so there is a roast.

Cut the rainbow trout into sections, marinate it in a homemade sauce for four to five minutes, and then grill it over the heat so that the fish is charred on the outside and tender on the inside. The flavor of the sauce is added to the roast, and the flavor is richer. As for the tin foil grill, it absorbs the Western method, and the ingredients are simple, only onion, ginger shreds and salt, which can better reflect the original aroma of rainbow trout——— fresh and fresh fragrance.

The original flavor is the most beautiful taste, but most northerners like strong flavors, and this Western-style method is a bit tasteless for them. In fact, tin foil roasting is also a very classic dish in Hakka cuisine, such as tin foil wrapped sea bass, which is another flavor.

1. Differences.

Salmon is expensive, such as Norwegian salmon, the market price is between 80 100 yuan and 1 catty.

The domestic rainbow trout, the market ** is about 30 yuan 1 catty.

Their ** varies greatly, so many merchants will use rainbow trout to impersonate in order to obtain higher profits.

2. Variety differences.

In fact, these two fish are completely different species and have nothing to do with each other. Salmon refers to Atlantic salmon, which is a saltwater fish, while rainbow trout is a freshwater fish, but the texture of the fish is very similar to that of salmon, so it is called freshwater salmon by some.

3. Differences in meat quality.

Salmon has a bright color, orange-red, clear fat texture, and wide fat between the textures, it tastes firm and full, the fish oil is abundant, it has a melt-in-your-mouth feeling, full of elasticity, and the texture of the fish meat constantly squeezing the teeth and mouth when chewing. Under the light, the surface of the salmon is shiny and faintly reflective.

Rainbow trout, on the other hand, have a chewier texture and some earthy flavor, and the meat is not as delicious as authentic salmon. Rainbow trout have a dull surface under the light, and they are not reflective.

4. Differences in appearance.

Salmon and rainbow trout, their appearance is completely different, and those who understand it can see it at a glance.
