Salmon "candy" is a signature food of Northwest coastal communities.

We craft our Sockeye Salmon Candy using traditions perfected by native peoples over many generations.

First, premium wild sockeye is marinated in a light salt brine mixed with organic cane sugar.

Then it's slowly smoked over natural alder wood, where it acquires a sweet, smoky, irresistible glaze.

"Tough and chewy" Laurie Francis on 05/15/2018 08:08 Review: Usually, our favorite treat from the sea are smoked salmon “candy”. This order was such a disappointment. The pieces were small, tough, chewy and rather tasteless. Not sure we will order again. Hello Laurie, ​Thank you for sharing your feedback. We are sorry to hear your disappointment in this product. Our Customer Service Team will follow up with you regarding this order. Thank you, The Vital Choice Team

Wild sockeye salmon, organic cane sugar, sea salt, natural wood smoke.

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).

Serving tips

• Smoked salmon is as safe as cooked fish, thanks to the natural, salt-mediated curing process and flash-freezing.
• Serve on a bialy, whole grain bagel, thin-sliced dark rye bread, or crisp rye cracker such as Wasa Bread.
• Spread the bagel, bread, or cracker with light cream cheese or avocado and top the salmon with thin tomato slices and/or capers and fresh basil leaves.
• Crumble chunks into scrambled eggs with chopped, quick-sautéed chives, scallions, or bell peppers.
