The journey of our Sockeye Salmon takes a long time, but it’s well worth the wait. After feeding on shrimp in the nutrient-rich North Pacific Ocean for three years, Sockeye Salmon return home to Bristol Bay in Alaska. Passing along the Wood River, they are caught with a beach net, pulled-in by the strong hands of local fishermen. Frozen right after the catch, the freshness is preserved for seafood lovers around the world. Baked, grilled, or pan-seared, every bite of our Sockeye Salmon unlocks the authentic taste of Alaska!
This product comes from a fishery that has been independently certified to the MSC’s standard for a well-managed and sustainable fishery. www.msc.org | MSC-C-53962
Pre-Rigor Salmon Pin Bone In
As our Sockeye Salmon is flash-frozen within a few hours after catch, it qualifies as “Pre-Rigor”. This means the fish is frozen before it reaches “rigor mortis”, a natural phenomenon which occurs 6 – 12 hours after slaughter. During rigor mortis, the fish is extremely stiff and cannot be processed. Thus, our “pre-rigor” salmon always comes with pin-bones in, as pin bones can’t be removed at this stage. Pre-rigor fillets are uniquely fresh: The muscle is flexible and naturally firm in texture!
