Sockeye salmon fillet in oil, from Kamchatka order online

The tasty low-fat meat of the sockeye salmon won´t leave you indifferent

The red salmon, also known as sockeye in English, will delight you with its delicate taste and low-fat meat. The wild caught sockeye spends a lot of time in active movement on the high seas, thus its meat is particularly rich in protein. The fish is born in freshwater and spends its entire first two to three years there before migrating further into the ocean. Once the sockeye salmon reaches maturity at about four years, it returns to freshwater to spawn. Maturity is usually reached after about four years, and the spawning always happens in freshwater. The red salmon movement in fresh water is entirely upstream. In the course of this migration, the fish covers several hundred kilometres. The effort is so great that the sockeye salmon often arrives at the spawning site completely exhausted.

Sockeye salmon qualities

The red salmon is especially known for the bright red colour of its meat and its delicate full-bodied aroma. However, the colour of the meat is not always as dark as when the fish is mature. In fact, as the fish migrates upstream, its colour turns from light silver to bright red. The red salmon is curated using the Malossol technique and belongs to one of the highest quality delicacies in the fish products selection. Our wild salmon is always sustainably wild caught in Kamchatka. By buying the red salmon fillets, you are choosing a product that you can enjoy with a clear conscience.
