Cooked Salmon in villager trading

Cooked Salmon is neither bought nor sold for emeralds: the Fisherman takes 6 raw salmon plus 1 emerald and hands back 6 cooked salmon, one of the three trades in the game that work that way.

Cooked Salmon restores more hunger than the raw fish it came from, and the Fisherman will do the cooking himself if you bring him the catch and an emerald. Cooking salmon in a furnace, smoker or campfire gives one.

Your odds of finding Cooked Salmon

A villager only shows part of its trade table, so knowing who trades cooked salmon is not the same as getting it. The friendliest roll here is the fisherman (apprentice): 67% of them carry it, so it takes about 1.5 of them on average before one does.

Chance and daily throughput per villager for Cooked Salmon
Villager	Tier	Villagers with this offer	Rolls to see it	Most from one villager	After a cure
Fisherman	Apprentice	67% (2 in 3)Bedrock 50% (1 in 2)	about 1.5	192 cooked salmon a day32 uses, 2 restocks a day	1 raw salmonwas 6, 5 off

The chance is the draw size over the pool size in the game's own trade set file for that tier. The Bedrock line under it is the same sum on Bedrock's own table, which splits a tier into groups and draws out of each one separately, so the two editions often disagree. The day figure is the trade's use limit times the 2 restocks a villager is allowed per in-game day (Villager.allowedToRestock), so it is a ceiling and not an average: it assumes you are there for every restock. The cure column is 125 reputation times the trade's own multiplier, floored, and never takes a cost below one. Counted from the game's own draw sizes. How that check works.

Who trades Cooked Salmon, and at what price

a Fisherman at the Apprentice tier takes 6 raw salmon and 1 emerald for 6 cooked salmon. That is the whole of it: no emeralds come back out, so it is a conversion rather than a sale, and the emerald is part of what you pay.
