Riverence Steelhead
Land-based aquaculture, Idaho
Steelhead is a cross between trout and salmon. Like the other farmed fish we offer, these fish are raised without the use of antibiotics, hormones, or chemicals. Their flavor is milder than salmon, and they have a tender texture.
They are raised in pure Rocky Mountain spring water and are fed a diet containing the same micronutrients that ocean steelhead eat. Thus they have the same deep-red flesh as their wild counterparts.
Riverence steelhead works in partnership with FishWise, the James Beard Foundation, OceanWise, and TroutEx. Seafood Watch rates these steelhead a "Best Choice." Low mercury level. Kosher.
1 lb. for $15.75
8 oz. for $8.00 ($10.00 min.)

hugely expensive. We would argue that Kyuquot Sound farmed sablefish gives its wild cousin a run for the money.
Meagre
Ocean-based aquaculture
Meagre (also called stone sea bass and salmon bass) has become a member favorite. Long popular in Europe, it has been gaining popularity here too. Meagre has appeared on the menu at The Girl and the Goat, The Little Goat, Boka, Coco Pazzo, Anteprima, and other other fine dining establishments.
Meagre's delicate, sweet taste is much like that of corvina and bass, though its flesh is denser. It received a "1 Star Superior Taste Award" from the renowned International Taste and Quality Institute in Brussels. See for yourself why chefs are so excited about it. Low mercury level. Kosher.

Gibsons Steakhouse Seasoning Salt
Ingredients: Salt, spices, dehydrated onion and garlic.
We are selling this product because a dietician recommended it for a friend with heart issues. It contains only salt, spices, and dehydrated onion and garlic, and it is the secret ingredient that some say makes Gibsons steaks so good. Because it is a healthy alternative to straight kosher salt, we wanted to try it.
The verdict? Gibsons proved to be excellent on fish too!
Net weight: 6 ounces for $6.00
