Details

Sockeye salmon is an iconic species native to the Pacific Ocean and its associated rivers and lakes. These fish have a distinctive appearance with a bright red body and green head. Sockeye salmon filets are bright red color and have a rich and distinctive flavor.

This versatile variety of salmon can be cooked using most methods, but its higher fat content makes it ideal on the grill. Try broiling, skin side up, or sear and create simple pan sauces with lemon, butter and capers. Sockeye salmon is best served medium rare to medium and is ideal for use in raw preparations, like poke. 

All our salmon is caught and processed in the US using sustainable hook and line fishing methods. Our fish is caught fresh and flash frozen to preserve its natural goodness. The location where the salmon was obtained is printed on each package for traceability.

Average weight: 12 oz. Each package contains (2) 6 oz. filets.

Wild, Not Farmed

Our seafood is caught in the wild from closely monitored fisheries located in the US. Wild caught is superior to farm raised seafood in terms of quality, but also limits overfishing, pollution and human rights violations. Small, family-owned operations use sustainable methods, such as hook and line or shallow nets, to responsibly catch our seafood and flash freeze it at its peak freshness. Our seafood is traceable and includes a label that shows the specific landing location and the catch method used.
