Enjoy our best value on wild Alaskan sockeye!
These skin-on filleted sockeye sides thaw and cook quickly, and one will feed a smaller family.
Each fillet averages about 19 oz, and each 5-fillet order is guaranteed to contain at least 6 lbs.
Why is Vital Choice wild Alaskan sockeye so clearly superior?
The relationships we fostered during decades of fishing Alaskan waters give us rare access to the very finest sockeye, from smaller harvest regions ("fisheries") that host fewer boats and feature faster processing.
This means that Vital Choice sockeye is cleaned and flash-frozen very quickly after harvest, preserving its fresh-caught quality perfectly!
In addition, fat levels in sockeye vary by region, and on average ours features substantially more succulence and omega-3s than standard sockeye.
These advantages explain why salmon-savvy shoppers consider Vital Choice wild Alaskan sockeye such a rare treat!
Sockeye vs. king and silver salmon
Wild Alaskan sockeye is richer than our silver (coho) salmon and a bit leaner than our king (chinook) salmon, with a firmer texture than either fish.
Sockeye nutrition
In addition to ample protein, Alaskan sockeye salmon offers abundant omega-3s, as well as unrivaled levels of vitamin D and astaxanthin (as-tuh-zan-thin) … a carotene-class red-orange pigment with rare antioxidant power.
On average, sockeye salmon provides these amounts of nutrients per 6 oz portion: *Turujman SA, Wamer WG, Wei RR, Albert RH. Rapid liquid chromatographic method to distinguish wild salmon from aquacultured salmon fed synthetic astaxanthin. J AOAC Int. 1997 May-Jun;80(3):622-32. |
