Description
These wild sockeye portions are highly recommended by all of us at Lummi Island Wild. Their superior fat content makes for great flavor and mouthfeel. They have deep red color and a nice flake and are among the richest in omega 3 fatty acids of any salmon. Healthy for you, healthy for the planet.
Harvested exclusively by Upper Skagit Tribal families, these sockeye are the last wild sockeye remaining in the lower Salish Sea, and are the truly amazing success story of multiple tribes working together to save them from extinction. They are a perfect example of “eat them to save them”, as they are a mainstay of the Upper Skagit and Swinomish Tribal families.
Also known as red salmon, sockeye are known for their rich flavor, with their dramatic color remaining during cooking. They are suitable for grilling, broiling, sautéing, baking, poaching, steaming, and smoking. Sockeyes are grazers of the oceans, eating from the bottom of the food chain. Their diet consists of zooplankton, which gives them their deep red color and also their distinctive clean flavor. Baker Lake sockeye have good color, a fatty salmon flavor, and a luxurious mouthfeel.

Our order, an “Empty Nester” gift for our daughter and her husband, arrived in Brooklyn solidly frozen and is being enjoyed as I write this. They are completely satisfied with the salmon, and are looking forward to the prawns and tuna.

Wow factor 10 for sure. I’ve always been a fan of Copper River sockeye salmon… I think the Baker is my new favorite. Will definitely be back for more.
Thanks .
