Description
The often-overlooked allure of trim pieces takes center stage in our seafood collection. Derived from the same sockeye and harvest as our vacuum-packed portions, these compact servings boast the quality, flavor, and nutrition synonymous with any of our salmon offerings, but in a more petite presentation. Rather than being fashioned into complete 6-ounce portions, these sockeye cuts range from 2 to 4 ounces each and are individually quick-frozen for easy retrieval from the 10 lb box as needed.
What distinguishes our small portions is their size, affirming that good things truly come in small packages. The versatility of these petite servings in the kitchen adds an extra layer to your encounter with wild Alaskan seafood. Consider them your reliable protein source for snackable seafood moments, impromptu fish cravings, and meals requiring just the right amount of extra for the captain and the crew gathered around your kitchen table.
In our commitment to ecological and ethical practices, we prioritize maximizing the use of our harvest. Given that our individually-portioned products are tailored to 6 ounces, any remaining cuts of varying weights are carefully collected to form these small portions. This approach not only allows us to extend more of our delectable catch to our customers but also minimizes waste typically associated with processing, aligning seamlessly with our dedication to sustainable practices.
Beyond sustainability, the presence of small portions in the kitchen proves to be an unexpected delight. These slender, asymmetrical cuts, referred to as trim pieces, cook up in a fraction of the time required for the center cuts of salmon. Their dimensions also contribute to expedited defrosting, whether in the refrigerator or a bowl of cold water. Offering more surface area for seasonings on one side and enhanced skin-to-pan contact on the other, these small portions provide a larger canvas for flavor exploration and a heightened potential for achieving a crispy, crunchy, and irresistible texture.
Tailored for light meals, appetizers, and second helpings, small portions generally cook up even faster than their full-sized fillet counterparts.
