Instructions

Notes
- To Section Oranges
- The shape of your salmon filet will determine how long it needs to cook. A thicker filet will need longer while a thinner and flatter filet will need less time.
- Salmon should be slightly translucent in the center and flake easily with a fork.
- Slice off the stem end and opposite end to create flat surfaces.
- Stand on one end, and remove the skin following the contours and catching the inner membrane as you work your way around.
- Carefully cut between the membrane in each section and lift out each wedge.
