  • Use a whisk or fork to thoroughly mix the ingredients until they are well combined. This ensures that each bite of salmon will have a consistent flavor.
  • Taste the seasoning mix and adjust the salt or cayenne pepper according to your preference. Remember, the seasoning should complement the salmon without overpowering it.
