Alaska King Salmon (Oncorhynchus Tschawytscha)
|
 |
The king salmon is the largest species in Alaska.
· Average weight: 8-9 Kg.
· Commercial range of weights: 2-18 Kg.
The succulent flavor of King salmon meat and its spectacular size have opened the doors for it in the most select restaurants.
King Salmon is appreciated by smokers and chefs for its size (which allows some spectacular presentations) and its flavorsome flesh (it is the wild salmon with the highest fat content).
King salmon has a longer fishing season than the other species and for this reason can be obtained fresh for nine or ten months a year.
King salmon is marketed fresh, smoked and frozen, whole and in fillets.
