Alaskan silver salmon is often overshadowed by better-known sockeye and king, but this moist, delicious fish finds favor with many salmon connoisseurs.

In fact, fillets of wild Alaskan silver salmon (previously flash-frozen) won a blind taste test conducted by the Chef's Collaborative, beating fresh wild King salmon from Oregon and California, and farmed Atlantic salmon.

Silver (coho) salmon is leaner than sockeye or king, with a milder flavor than either, and healthy amounts of omega-3s and vitamin D.
Just as in sport fishing, our silver salmon are line-harvested from small
boats.
 
To preserve their fresh-caught quality, our silver salmon are iced immediately and flash-frozen within a few hours of leaving the water.

Silver salmon nutrition 
In addition to ample protein, silver salmon provide three beneficial natural food factors in abundance ... amounts are per 6 oz portion, and will vary annually and by harvest location:
  • Omega-3s – About 1,184mg of omega-3 EPA+DHA, or 3 to 7 times more than the minimum daily EPA+DHA intake recommended by most world health authorities (250-500mg).
  • Vitamin D3 – About 747 IU in the optimal D3 form, which is more than most other fish, and more than any fortified food, approaching the child-to-adult US RDA of 600 IU.
  • Astaxanthin – About 2.31mg. This red-orange pigment is a carotenoid-class nutrient with unique health benefits.
 
Pure and wholesome
Wild Alaskan salmon is among the purest of all ocean fish, which is why the EPA, FDA, Alaska Division of Public Health, and consumer organizations recommend it without reservation. To learn more, visit our Purity page.

While leaner than Sockeye or King,
our Wild Alaskan Silver (Coho) salmon
offers abundant omega-3s and vitamin D

Storage
Keep frozen at or below 0° F (-18° C). Vacuum-sealed fish held under these conditions should retain its quality for at least six to 12 months. Shellfish and lean white fish (halibut, cod) generally have a longer freezer life than fatty fish (salmon, tuna, sablefish).
NOTE: Seafood stored in frost-free freezers should be used within 3 months.
 
Thawing instructions
Thaw under refrigeration at or below 38 degrees Fahrenheit (3 degrees Celsius). Before thawing, puncture or remove packaging.
 
For quick-thawing, place frozen package in cool water for approximately 20 to 30 minutes, just until contents are flexible. Once thawed, immediately cook or refrigerate (if refrigerating, puncture package). Prior to cooking, do not allow fish to reach temperatures above 38 degrees Fahrenheit (3 degrees Celsius).
 
Cooking and serving tips
  • Rinse fish quickly in cold, clean water.
  • Cook in a medium-hot lightly oiled pan, under a broiler, or on the grill for 7-8 minutes, until only the very center is still translucent.
  • Remove fish from heat and let it “self-cook” another two to three minutes, until just cooked through to center before serving.
  • NOTE: It is perfectly safe and healthful to serve our fish raw or partly cooked, because flash-freezing has rendered it 100% sushi-safe.
  • Enliven your fish entree with seasonings such as Vital Choice Organic Salmon Marinade Mix or other herb-spice blends.
  • Add the seasonings of your choice to a little olive oil and marinate the fish, refrigerated, for 30-60 minutes or overnight. Or, simply mist fish lightly with olive oil or macadamia nut oil and dust with seasonings before cooking.

"Absolutely delicious"

Review: None of the oily, fishy taste typical of restaurant salmon. Delicious when we cooked it over cedar planks and just as tasty when I used olive oil, salt and pepper in a hot pan 5 minutes total ... for medium rare add wasabi and mustard sauce ... perfect.


"Very tasty and rich"

Review: I was pleasantly surprised by the pure flavor of grilled Silver Salmon from Vital Choice (I do not add any spices or marinade), as well as the after taste. But most remarkably, however, I discovered that it leaves me full for the whole day, unlike "wild" fish I buy from other places. I guess that's the difference between wild and farm-raised for the consumer... So it's well worth the money.


"Silver is the best!!"

Review: This is the best salmon my wife and I have had - it beats Atlantic Salmon. We just ordered more for our summer barbecues.


"The Silver Salmon is a must try!"

Review: Had sworn off eating anything but Atlantic salmon after "fishy" encounters with Coho, etc., but decided to try the Silver Salmon after reading about VitalChoice on Dr. Weil's website. It’s deliciously incomparable & healthy to boot! I’m so glad I finally placed an order, and I’m looking forward to my next delivery.
