Wixter’s Yellowtail is harvested exclusively from its native waters off the southern coast of Australia, where the cold, icy seas remain pure and untouched. A majestic ocean swimmer that is sometimes called kingfish by locals, Yellowtail is a refined delicacy on the plate. Prized by Japanese sushi masters for its subtle sweetness, Yellowtail is delicious raw, cured in lime juice, slow cooked, pan fried, or grilled.

Item of the Day: Alaskan Sockeye Salmon from Wixter Seafood

By | Chef's Feed, Item of the Day, Products, Seafood, What Chefs Want

Alaskan Sockeye Salmon

Wixter’s Sockeye Salmon is wild-caught in the cool, clean waters of the Cook Inlet. Since it originates from one of the only salmon fisheries not enhanced by a hatchery spawn, Sockeye is a truly wild fish. With its deep orange, almost scarlet flesh, Sockeye is prized by salmon lovers for its texture and rich flavor. While it is one of the smaller species of Pacific salmon, Sockeye is packed with more heart-healthy omega-3s than its larger cousins. It is also a joy to work with in the kitchen. Wixter’s Sockeye stands up well to grilling, tastes delicious slow roasted, and can be fried for foodies who like a crispy skin. Learn more here!
