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.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long to cook frozen salmon?

Brush filets with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Arrange the filets in an ovenproof baking dish. Seal the baking dish with foil. This provides an enclosed environment to thaw the fish and retain its moisture. Bake for 15 minutes. 

Remove foil and bake until the internal temperature reaches 125°F (about 9 to 10 minutes). 

Let rest for 3 to 4 minutes. Serve with lemon wedges. 

Where is your seafood sourced from?

All seafood is wild caught in sustainably managed US fisheries. All fish purchased from SRF is labeled with the species name, catch location, catch method, and, if applicable, the vessel it was caught on. To ensure top quality, all seafood products are flash frozen at peak freshness.

King Salmon vs Sockeye

King salmon generally has a milder taste than Sockeye salmon with a deep red color and a firm texture. King salmon typically has a higher fat content of the two varieties. Sockeye salmon characteristically has a much stronger flavor profile with a deep orange color. Both fish are an excellent choice for your next meal and are a perfect accompaniment to Snake River Farms American Wagyu steaks.

What should the internal temperature of salmon be?

Chefs recommend, and we agree, that the ideal temperature for salmon is 125°F. This is a medium level of doneness that is rich and moist with gently flaking salmon. Cooking to a temperature higher than 130°F can produce dry, overly firm results.
