These tools will help you handle the salmon safely and effectively.
Place the salmon fillet on the cutting board with the skin side down. Ensure that the fish is clean and dry before you start. This will make the skin removal process easier.
Using the sharp knife, make a small incision at the tail end of the salmon. Be careful not to cut too deep, as you want to cut through the skin without piercing the flesh.
Using the kitchen tongs, hold the tail end of the salmon firmly. This will provide a good grip and prevent the fish from slipping while you remove the skin.
With the knife held at a slight angle, insert it between the skin and the flesh. Slowly and gently glide the knife along the length of the salmon, separating the skin from the flesh. Use a sawing motion if necessary, but be cautious not to remove any of the precious salmon meat.
Continue gliding the knife along the length of the fillet, working your way towards the other end. Keep the knife as close to the skin as possible to ensure you remove all of it.
Inspect the fillet for any remaining bits of skin. Use the knife to carefully remove any leftover skin that might have been missed during the initial process.
