It's a seasonal fish with a firm texture and a clean, ocean-forward flavor. Leaner than a fatty salmon like Ora King, it's built for cooking rather than raw. This is a whole fish, around 10 lbs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"seto-p\"\u003eThe lean, firm flesh is exactly what suits traditional Japanese preparations — salt-grilling, miso-zuke (miso marinade), and salt-curing all play to its clean flavor rather than fighting a heavy fat. As a whole fish, it also gives you the roe (sujiko\/ikura) and collar, parts prized in their own right.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"seto-section\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"seto-h3\"\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"seto-spec-table\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOrigin\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHokkaido, Japan\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eType\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAki sake (秋鮭) — Chum salmon\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFormat\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWhole fish\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSize\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eapprox. 10 lbs\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSeason\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAutumn (fall)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eState\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFresh \/ frozen\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBest for\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSalt-grilling, miso-zuke, salt-curing\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"seto-section\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"seto-h3\"\u003eHow to enjoy\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"seto-p\"\u003eCut into fillets or steaks and cook it — this is a salmon for heat, not for sashimi.
