Sushi Grade Salmon Trio

Salmon Tasting Box

Our Salmon Sampler Box is a delicious way to taste three selections of sushi grade salmon side by side and determine your favorite!

Where and how the salmon are harvested affect their fat content, which lends to their texture and mouthfeel. Flavor will also vary slightly. For the best experience, we suggest trying all three salmons together – first as sashimi or nigiri sushi, then cooked if you like. (Defrosted fish should be eaten raw same day and may be refrigerated up to two days before being cooked.) We think you’ll enjoy all three salmons, but will be intrigued and pleasantly surprised by how different they are from one another!

  • Canadian SalmonAtlantic salmon from the clear, cold waters of British Columbia. Moderately fatty texture with a mild flavor. Budget friendly. We suggest this as your first tasting bite.
  • Faroe Islands Salmon – North Atlantic salmon from the Arctic-cold waters below Iceland. Melt-in-your mouth texture and flawless, rich  flavor. A great value. We suggest this as your second taster.
  • Mt Cook Alpine Salmon – Premium freshwater King salmon raised in the swift, cold currents of New Zealand’s Southern Alps. Impeccable, with fine marbling, a silky texture, and slightly sweet, pristine flavor. As it’s the most splurge-worthy of the bunch, reserve it for the end of your tasting sequence!

Featuring 6 pounds of the highest quality salmon in 1 lb frozen center cut portions, our Salmon Tasting Box will provide multiple meals for a couple or family. It also serves as a great excuse to throw a “salmon tasting” dinner party! Especially when you consider how much it costs to go out to dinner these days! Not to mention, if you’re looking for a way to add more Omega 3s to your diet this is the box for you!

Fish Lovers Box

Fish Lover’s Sampler Box

Seafood is considered an excellent source of protein, vitamins, minerals, and heart-healthy fatty acids. The FDA recommends eating a healthy, balanced diet that includes at least two portions of fish a week, including one oily fish. Modeled after our founder’s method of eating one red fish, one white fish and one orange fish per week, our Fish Lover’s Box features:

  • Ahi or Bluefin (3 lbs) wild caught, sushi / sear grade*
  • White fish (4 lbs), wild caught (not sushi grade) **
  • Salmon (3 lbs) farmed, sushi grade

In total you will receive 10 pounds of fish! The quantity of each fish is provided in 1lb portions. Typically 3/4 to 1 lb of fish serves 2-3 people, but feel free to adjust according to your needs. For your convenience, each portion of fish in our Fish Lover’s Box is cut in house, then Proton Frozen and vacuum sealed to maintain freshness quality, flavor, and texture.

* If planning to enjoy some of your tuna raw as sashimi, sushi, or poke, we recommend doing so within a week. Some species, like tuna, naturally turn brown once exposed to air or if stored in a traditional freezer. Proton freezing technology slows this process but does not prevent it. Once tuna begins to brown on the outside, it is best suited for searing, grilling, or other cooking methods.

** The species of white fish may vary per order dependent on inventory and seasonality, but within a single order the 4lbs will be the same species.

Defrosting: Place a packaged frozen portion in cold water for 15 to 30 minutes, until thawed. Remove from packaging, then pat dry, and enjoy. Alternatively, remove frozen fish from packaging, wrap with a paper towel and place in the refrigerator to defrost overnight.

– Our Surf & Surf Seafood Sampler Box features:

  • Ahi or Bluefin (3 x 1lbs) wild caught, sushi / sear grade*
  • White fish (4 x 1lbs), wild caught **
  • Salmon (3 x 1lbs) farmed, sushi grade
  • Mexican shrimp (2lbs), wild caught, P&D, tail-on

In total you will receive 12 pounds of seafood! Considering the standard serving size for any variety of meat or fish is 3 ounces, this box will provide at least 64 servings. That’s 16 meals for a family of four, or 32 meals for two! Of course, feel free to adjust the serving size based on your needs. 

For your convenience, each portion of fish is cut in house, then Proton Frozen and vacuum sealed to maintain freshness, quality, flavor, and texture. Our wild Mexican shrimp is IQF (individually quick frozen), which is great for portioning out a little or a lot!

* If planning to enjoy some of your ahi raw as sashimi, sushi, or poke, we recommend doing so within the first week or so. Some species, like tuna, naturally turn brown once exposed to air or if stored in a traditional freezer. Proton freezing technology slows this process but does not prevent it. Once tuna begins to brown on the outside, it is more visually suitable for searing, grilling, or other cooking methods.

** The species of white fish may vary per order dependent on inventory and seasonality, but within a single order the 4lbs will be the same species.

Defrosting: Place a packaged frozen portion in cold water for 15 to 30 minutes, until thawed. Remove from packaging, then pat dry, and enjoy. Alternatively, remove frozen product from packaging, wrap with a paper towel and place in the refrigerator to defrost overnight.

Raw, whole octopus

Whole Spanish Octopus

Sourced from the sun-drenched coast of Spain and Morocco, this is a highly desired premium octopus. The warm waters lend to a higher fat content and better yield, making Spanish octopus notably sweet and tender.

The key to perfectly delicious octopus is to first tenderize it by cooking it. (Also, it’s easier to work with octopus after it’s cooked because raw octopus is quite slippery!) You can find all kinds of tips and tricks online, but boiling octopus is practically foolproof. In a large pot, submerge the octopus in water. Set on high heat, bring water to a boil, then lower heat to simmer. Cook for about one hour or until the thickest part of a tentacle pierces easily with a knife.

Once the octopus is cooked, cut off the tentacles where they converge on the body, and remove the hard beak and eyes. At this point you have a few options: serve the octopus while it’s still warm; chill for later use in cold preparations such as sashimi, sushi, crudo and seafood salads; or pan sear or grill it.

Serving suggestions…

-Dress seared, grilled or chilled octopus with olive oil, garlic, spices, herbs, lemon, etc.

-Make octopus salad (you’ll find countless variations online!)

-Slice for octopus carpaccio or crudo
