Sockeye salmon has a robust flavor, a deep red colour, and has gained world-wide recognition as being the species featured in June's famous Copper River run. Not all Sockeye come from that specific river run in Alaska, but as long as they're wild, they're all fantastic!

Best Practices for preparing & cooking salmon
Slow Down! - Slow cooking seals in the juices, particularly
for wild salmon. In an oven, bake at 275ºF for approximately 20 minutes. When grilling, let the coals burn down, or place the grill up
high. Seafood is done when it turns translucent to opaque, and flakes begin
separate easily with a fork. Your seafood will keep cooking even after you
remove it from the heat.
Avoid Sticking - Use a light brushing of olive oil to help
avoid the seafood sticking to a grill or baking sheet. Another option when
grilling is to cut a potato in half and run it lengthwise down the hot grill;
the starch will act as a natural lubricant.
Start With Skin Side Up - If your fillet has skin, keep it
on while cooking. It will keep the fish intact and can easily be removed after
cooking if you prefer. When grilling, start with the skin side up. This side
has the rich oils which will be drawn into the flesh by the heat below.
Flip Once, and ONLY Once - Home cooks have a tendency to
flip too many times. This can break up the fillet and leads to uneven cooking.
Keep It Simple - A great piece of salmon, cooked or grilled correctly, needs very little else. We recommend
a simple brushing with olive oil/sea salt/cracked pepper, a mix of olive
oil/chopped fresh mint/cilantro, or a small dollop of one of our simple sauces
or specialty butters. Don’t cover the wonderful flavor of a great fish, cooked
well, with lots of heavy toppings.
