King Salmon
Gill net caught, Sitka, Alaska
We've had farmed Atlantic salmon, we've had wild Alaskan sockeye salmon, but we haven't had Wild King salmon yet this year.
To review: there are 6 different types of salmon (king—also known as chinook—Atlantic, sockeye, coho, pink, and chum). Of these, the king salmon is the largest and fattiest, and it is considered to be the most flavorful. It is the highest of all the salmons in omega-3s, and its high natural oil content gives its meat an especially rich taste. Seafood Watch rates it a "Good Alternative." Low mercury level. Kosher.

Skate Wing
Trawl caught, East coast
Skate wings are exaggerated pectoral fins made of cartilage. Sounds delicious, no? Well, they ARE a taste treat. Many compare their flavor to that of scallops.
Skate are best when super fresh. If you are not planning to cook the night you pick up your fish, best to either freeze it 😠or opt for the king salmon instead. Seafood Watch rates skate a "Good Alternative." Low mercury level.

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!
