Wild Sockeye salmon has the reddest meat of all the salmon species. It also has relatively high oil content; in fact it has the 2nd highest oil content after King salmon. In salmon a high oil content translates into a richer flavor. Sockeye salmon has a medium flake size.
Sockeye salmon from different river runs become available as the season progresses. In general, the primary differences are price, availability, and origin.
Bristol Bay is one of the first wild salmon fisheries to open each year and is located in the South-Eastern part of the Bering Sea, North of the Alaska panhandle.
Copper River salmon are considered some of the finest salmon available due to their extremely high oil content (which they store in order to swim up the frigid and rugged river). This gives them an even richer flavor than other sockeye salmon varieties.
Frozen Sockeye Fillets vary in origin depending on availability, but will always be wild.
Applications: Salmon is a wonderful fish that can be prepared in an endless number of ways. It can be broiled, smoked, baked, fried, and grilled. It can also be served in salads, sandwiches, or in pasta.
Season: Sockeye season is typically May through September depending on the catch-area.
Origin: Fresh Sockeye Fillets are listed by origin when available. Frozen Sockeye Salmon Fillets vary in origin depending upon availability, but are always from wild Sockeye salmon.
