Tacos have ancient roots in Mexico, dating back to the silver mines where 'tacos' referred to the paper-wrapped explosives used to extract ore. The concept of wrapping food in tortillas evolved, and regional variations flourished. Salmon, while not traditionally Mexican, is a popular ingredient in contemporary taco variations, especially influenced by American cuisine and seafood availability.

The dish balances the richness of salmon with bright, fresh, and tangy elements.
Grilled salmon offers a savory and slightly smoky flavor. The fresh salsa provides acidity, sweetness, and herbaceous notes from ingredients like tomatoes, onions, cilantro, and peppers. The lime crema adds a creamy texture and a zesty tang that complements the salmon and salsa.

Salmon Preparation
Marinate the salmon briefly before grilling to enhance its flavor. A simple marinade of lime juice, olive oil, garlic, and chili powder works well. Avoid overcooking the salmon; it should be moist and flaky.
Salsa Freshness
Use the freshest ingredients possible for the salsa. Homemade salsa is always superior to store-bought. Adjust the heat level to your preference by using different types of peppers.
Lime Crema Consistency
Adjust the consistency of the lime crema to your liking by adding more or less lime juice or sour cream/Greek yogurt. For a richer crema, use Mexican crema or crème fraîche.
Tortilla Choice
Warm the tortillas before filling them. Corn tortillas are traditional, but flour tortillas also work well. Charring them slightly over an open flame adds a smoky flavor.
