Thrifty, versatile, and delicious, our king salmon "bits & pieces" are perfect for tacos, chowders, kabobs, and fish cakes. From the same fish as our premium-cut portions, these come to you vacuum-packaged in one-pound blocks. Known also as Chinook, king salmon is the largest of the five Pacific salmon species and celebrated for its high oil content. Our kings are line-caught in the icy waters of Alaska and British Columbia, iced immediately, and flash-frozen within hours of catch to lock in their fresh-caught flavor and texture. King salmon's rich taste and luxurious texture make it perfect for grilling, broiling, or roasting. Ingredients: Wild Pacific king salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha). Contains fish. Flash-Frozen is the New Fresh: Much of our seafood comes to you frozen, which means you can enjoy seasonally harvested fish and shellfish any time of the year. Freezing fish rapidly and within hours of catch locks in flavor and freshness, giving us straight-from-the-sea taste without the risk of spoiling. Major advances in rapid-freeze technologies mean seafood can be frozen solid in a matter of seconds, which minimizes damage to cell walls, preserving taste, texture, and moisture levels. The process of freezing seafood has evolved to the point where frozen fish is comparable to—if not better than—fresh. In fact, consumer taste-tests conducted by Oregon State University consistently put frozen seafood on top. Marine Omega-3s: Omega-3 fatty acids are found in seafood, livestock, and some plants, but seafood is the only concentrated source of two types that are vital for human health: eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA). Evidence suggests consumption of EPA and DHA supports brain development and eye and heart health.
