This ground Coho Salmon, also known as Silver Salmon, is approximately 1 lb. The flavor is mild and well balanced - less fatty than a King Salmon, and not as lean as Sockeye.
Enjoy within 5 days or freeze for later use.
We ship this fish frozen. To thaw fish that has been frozen, place in a sealed bag in a bowl of cool water. Allow a day to thaw prior to cooking.
Starbird Fish is a crew of Vermont fishermen who brave the elements of Alaska's seas to bring you some of the highest quality fish in the world. Harvested June through October, these fish feast on zooplankton, small adult fishes, and occasionally squid.
After fish are caught, Tony of Starbird keeps them in a -20°F freezer! This extends it's shelf life for up to 3 years. Frozen foods degrade faster the warmer the freeze, so keeping this frozen at such a cold temperture helps to maintain the quality until the next harvest comes in from Alaska. Most household freezers are in the 8-20 degree range.
This makes the best salmon burgers I've ever eaten. It is never fishy, yet has a nice, fresh salmon flavor. Just add a bit of dill and dijon, and it's perfect!
This salmon is my new favorite! Super delicious, cooks up easily, a hit with everyone. Thank you!!
