  • To prevent the salmon from sticking to the grill, make sure the grill grates are clean and well-oiled before cooking.
  • If you don't have saffron threads, you can substitute with turmeric for a similar color and flavor.

Storage and Serving

  • Leftover grilled salmon can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
  • Reheat the salmon gently in a skillet over low heat to prevent it from drying out.
  • Serve the leftover salmon cold in salads or sandwiches for a delicious and healthy meal.
