Jezza, it has to do with your wording, not your choice of seasonings.
You flat out said something to the effect of, "works good for covering up the bad flavors".... That pretty much implies that you don't like salmon or that you're not buying good salmon.
No, my beef isn't about my choice of seasonings, my beef is that he thinks he's the almighty god that has the right to tell someone they don't like something because of the way they prefer that it's prepared. Salmon has good flavors and bad flavors to it, if you don't realize this... maybe you should stop eating so much god damn salt, or quit smoking... or whatever it is that has caused defect to your taste buds. Using Onions and Strawberries changes the chemistry of the salmon when it's cooking, it's not a "cover up" like using a bunch of garlic is.
You're right, I'm not buying good salmon, I'm catching it myself.
My BS meter is through the roof here. I like how you tell him if he likes all the flavors in salmon he has defective taste buds. And don't get into the chemistry BS, it works the same for pretty much anything you choose to put on it, so on that note you are just wrong. Strawberries are a little acidic, so it works like lemons. Salmon, to people who like salmon, doesn't have bad flavors. That's what liking something means, it means you think it has good flavors.
There are things i dont like, and i admit I dont like them unless i mask some of their flavors. There is nothing wrong with that, i hate grapefruit, sometimes it works well in drinks if the taste has been obliterated, but I wont say i like it.
Salmon I eat raw usually. I think it is fantastic raw, otherwise i just put the slightest amount of butter on it and bake it in tinfoil, so when it comes out, it tastes like salmon, because, ya know, i like the flavor of salmon
