Fresh salmon contains more histidine than white fish, so it is more prone to histamine formation when it is not perfectly cooled. If it is really fresh and immediately processed, it is usually tolerated, but requires caution. (Maintz & Novak, 2007)
High-protein decay risk: For rapidly perishable high-protein foods, storage and repeated reheating can increase histamine load, and reheating does not destroy the histamine formed.
