Alaskan Sockeye Salmon – Portion

Wild-caught sockeye from glacier-fed Alaskan waters.

Each portion weighs approximately 0.5 lb. and comes from wild-caught Alaskan sockeye salmon harvested from the Alsek River, a glacier-fed river that remains around 39°F. These fish are caught and processed directly by a small fishing family who spend salmon season in Southeast Alaska and live in the Treasure Valley the rest of the year. This direct sourcing means you know exactly where your salmon comes from and who caught it.

The cold, glacier-fed waters of the Alsek River create a demanding environment for salmon. Colder temperatures require the fish to carry higher natural fat levels to complete their long migration, contributing to sockeye’s rich texture and bold flavor. Known for its deep red color and firm structure, sockeye is one of the most sought-after wild salmon species.
