First up: asparagus. Oh, this is a classic for a reason. Grilled or roasted, asparagus brings this earthy, slightly grassy crunch that cuts right through salmon’s richness. It’s like giving your taste buds a little high-five after a rich bite.
Then there’s broccoli—yes, the humble tree-shaped veggie. When you roast it until the edges get charred and crispy, it develops a nutty sweetness that makes salmon sing. Have you ever noticed how those little burnt bits taste like tiny, savory candies? They’re the real MVPs here.
Green Beans?
Oh, and don’t sleep on green beans. Blanched or sautéed with garlic, they add a snappy, bright note. It’s like the vegetable version of a crisp white shirt—simple, effective, and always in style.
