- Unique Habitat: The pristine, cold waters of the Copper River create the perfect environment for sockeye salmon, resulting in a fish that is rich in flavor and high in healthy fats.
- Limited Availability: Due to the short fishing season from mid-May to early September and the careful management of this resource, Copper River Sockeye Salmon is a rare and precious delicacy that seafood enthusiasts eagerly anticipate each year.

Cooking Tips for Copper River Sockeye Salmon
To help you make the most of this exceptional salmon, here are a few cooking tips:
- Simple Grilling: Brush the salmon with olive oil, sprinkle with salt and pepper, and grill for about 4-6 minutes per side. The natural flavor of the sockeye shines through beautifully.
- Baking: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Place the salmon on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, add your favorite herbs and a squeeze of lemon, and bake for 12-15 minutes.
- Pan-Seared: Heat a bit of oil in a pan over medium-high heat. Cook the salmon, skin-side down, for about 3-4 minutes until the skin is crispy. Flip and cook for another 3-4 minutes until done to your liking.
- Smoked Salmon: For a more advanced method, try smoking the salmon. It enhances the rich, natural flavors and adds a delightful smoky touch.

Chef Adam Cooking Tip:
Cook like any other Salmon but be sure to add a little extra fat because this Wild variety is a "swimmer" and it tends to be a little less fatty and it needs a bump of extra olive oil or Bacon - who doesn't love some bacon....
