It is a terrific choice to boost your energy levels after a long day exploring the island of Skopelos.

Take a glimpse of the steps needed to make a salmon salad and discover why food in Skopelos is an experience you will savor for life!

• First we preheat the oven.  We place the salmon fillets on a baking sheet and then brush it with some olive oil. Then we put the salmon in the oven and bake it for at least 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile we prepare the vinaigrette by combining a bit of olive oil, white vinegar, onions, a spoonful of honey, ginger and poppy seeds in a large bowl. We season with salt and pepper if needed.
• We cut some red and green lettuce, the tomatoes and a cucumber and place them on the plate.
• When the salmon is cooked, we add it on the plate next to the vegetables and pour our vinaigrette on top.

The salmon salad is a fine choice for the summer nights in the island when the temperatures are pretty high, since it is both refreshing and light. Taste it today and embrace a delicious experience that only food in Skopelos can offer you!
