Tutor's tips
- •Ensure your skillet is very hot before adding the salmon to achieve a perfectly crispy, blackened crust without overcooking the interior.
- •Patting the salmon very dry is crucial for the spices to stick and for a good sear. Moisture can steam the fish instead of blacken it.
- •Adjust the cayenne pepper to your preferred spice level; for less heat, reduce the amount, or for more, add a pinch extra.
