Cuisine & Edibility

Sockeye Salmon

Intense, deep-red flesh with a full, robust salmon flavor and high omega-3 content. Excellent grilled, smoked, or canned; its bold flavor stands up to strong seasonings and wood smoke.

Swordfish

Dense, meaty flesh with a mild, slightly sweet flavor; moderate fat and steak-like texture. Ideal for grilling, broiling, or searing; pairs well with lemon-herb or citrus salsas.

Species Overview

Sockeye Salmon

The sockeye salmon is famous for turning bright red during its upstream spawning migration. Its deep-red flesh is the richest in omega-3 fatty acids of all Pacific salmon species, making it the most valuable commercially.

Swordfish

The swordfish is a highly migratory pelagic predator recognized by its long, flat, pointed bill. It can dive to depths exceeding 2,800 meters and possesses a specialized organ that heats its eyes and brain for improved vision in cold, deep water.
