Salmon has long belonged to regional American tables, from Alaska and the Pacific Northwest to Great Lakes smokehouses and modern supermarket seafood counters. The air fryer version is a very 21st-century treatment: quick, compact convection heat, simple seasoning, and a thermometer check. It is less a historic recipe than a snapshot of how American home cooks adapted seafood to fast weeknight appliances.
