Sockeye Salmon By The Wild Salmon Co.


Sockeye salmon (Oncorhynchus nerka) is also known as "red salmon" because of the dark red-orange color of its flesh and because it turns deep red as it swims upstream at the end of its life to spawn.


Sockeye salmon is smaller than most other salmon, weighing in at about five pounds to a maximum of 15 pounds, with thinner, more compact flesh.


Sockeye salmon is rich in texture and high in flavor. In fact, for people who like the flavor of salmon, sockeye tastes the most like salmon.


Sockeye salmon is the second fattiest salmon (after Chinook) and has the added benefit of having the firmest texture of all Pacific salmon.


Use sockeye salmon for most any salmon recipe where you are looking for a smaller fillet with more compact flesh, a more intense flavor, and a dark reddish-orange color. Know more about it @ The wild salmon co.
