Roasted Salmon with Ginger Honey Glaze

August 11, 2014

Today’s post is super special.

Roasted Salmon 2

I am not only sharing a delicious and healthy meal but I am going to talk a little bit about a very important initiative, The Sustainable Seafood Project.

I met Jessie from Life As A Strawberry at BlogHer Food 14. She is the sweetest gal and an amazing blogger. She is also an advocate for sustainable seafood and started The Sustainable Seafood Project. Jessie and her team bring together food bloggers to help shed light on the importance of sustainable seafood. When she asked me to become a partner of The Sustainable Seafood Project, I immediately said yes.

I will be honest. I did not know much about sustainable seafood until Jessie reached out to me. After reading and researching I became somewhat angry because I learned that seafood is being taken advantage of. Many species are victims of over fishing which means people are catching them faster than they can reproduce. When this happen, it not only effects other species in the environment, but the specie gets closer and closer to extinction. It’s incredibly sad.

I am not saying don’t eat seafood. We all know I eat just about everything, but what I am saying is be mindful when purchasing seafood. Monterey Bay Aquarium is a great resource to learn more about what you can do to help sustain seafood. I particulary like the seafood recommendation page – you can click on on the seafood you are looking for and it tells you what the best options are. In this case, Alaska Salmon is the way to go and it just so happen my local grocery store typically has it. Woot Woot!

I hope we inspired you to think a little deeper when it comes to purchasing seafood and we hope you enjoy all the amazing recipes out here that use only sustainable seafood. Below are the other amazing blogger partners who are also advocating for sustainable seafood!

    Great recipe, but broiling at 525 for 15 minutes will leave you with a burnt mess. I make salmon in the oven weekly and for this, I suggest 375 for about 18-20 minutes. Brush with more glaze, then broil for 4 minutes. Watch it so it doesn’t get too done.

    Love this recipe, Jessica! Salmon is my favorite fish to eat and I have had it in many different ways. But I have NEVER had a ginger glaze to my salmon. This sounds lovely.
