How to Store Maple Salmon
Let your cooked maple salmon cool completely first, then store it in a shallow, airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days for the best texture and flavor. To reheat, cover the salmon tightly with aluminum foil and warm it through in a 350°F (175°C) oven for roughly 15 minutes.
