Mild, Sweet, Flakey
One of the stars of Alaska is the brilliant Coho, the Silver Salmon. The mildly flavored Coho has a brightly colored flesh that is leaner in texture than that of King Salmon. While market weights range between 6 to 8 lbs, the fish of the Cordova Direct program with Capt. Tim consistently offers fish above 10 lbs. Larger Cohos tend to be a wider fillet and are readily apt to accept any cooking methods warranted by the chef. The slightly lowered fat content of Coho lends itself to a silky mouthfeel that doesn’t over encapsulate other ingredients. It is a perfect species for house-smoked applications and house-cured representation. It finds a home on the grill, in the broiler, simply sauteed, or even sous vide. Its vibrant coloration pops in crudo, tartare, sushi, and sashimi. Coho has a reputation as one of the best flavors in the Salmon kingdom.
Mild Yet Sweet Flavor
With flesh that tastes like crystal clear saltwater, Bali Barramundi Sea Bass is highly versatile. Aside from having a deliciously mild yet sweet flavor when raw, it can be Grilled, Baked, Steamed, Sauted, even BBQ'd. Its rich flavor can be enhanced with ingredients both Eastern and Western. The skin has a layer of fat that when salted and seared crisps like pork crackling.
Moist, Flakey, Clean
Like all Rockfish, the Bocaccio boast paper white flesh with bright bloodlines. The moisture is abundant, and for the guest who demands light, white, and flakey, this fish is the perfect fit. Substitute this for Grouper, Snapper, and with careful preparation, Black Cod.
