About Fish, salmon, tipnuk, fermented (Alaska Native)

Pacific salmon are the prized food fish of the genus Oncorhynchus, which includes Chinook or king, sockeye, coho, pink, and chum salmon of the northern Pacific Ocean. Famous for their epic upstream migrations to spawn in the rivers where they hatched, these fish are a cultural and dietary cornerstone of the Pacific coast, from Indigenous traditions to modern fisheries. Their flesh ranges from the deep red of sockeye to the paler pink of pink and chum, colored by the antioxidant astaxanthin, with a rich, savory flavor and firm texture that varies by species and fat content.

Salmon is one of the finest sources of heart-healthy omega-3 fatty acids, along with high-quality protein, vitamin D, vitamin B12, and selenium. It is grilled, roasted, pan-seared, poached, smoked, and cured, and eaten raw in sushi and sashimi, and it is also canned and dried. Cooking it just until it flakes keeps it moist. Choose fillets that are firm, moist, and bright with a fresh sea smell, and keep salmon well chilled, using fresh fish within a day or two or freezing it.
