Recipe: Smoked Wild Caught Alaskan Salmon & Dill Quiche

Recipe: Smoked Wild Caught Alaskan Salmon & Dill Quiche

Our smoked salmon is one of my personal favorite products, and customers tell us nearly every day how it’s the best smoked salmon they’ve ever tasted. Just last week, I had one woman waiting in our parking lot before we opened, because she could hardly wait to get more Alaskan king smoked salmon. She said that she and her husband had demolished the entire bag in one sitting. As delicious as it is all by itself, this smoked salmon and dill quiche is the perfect way to make it into a meal. Good for breakfast, brunch, lunch or even dinner, you really can’t go wrong. Better yet, it’s super easy to make and feels like a fancy item at your favorite brunch spot.

Wild caught salmon is famous for its rich content of omega-3 fatty acids. Interestingly, these highly beneficial healthy fats become even more stable when the fish is smoked using the method known as hot smoking. Although omega-3’s are known for being sensitive to high temperatures, for some reason the process of hot smoking causes the fatty acids to oxidize even less than they normally would without being subjected to heat. Amazingly, smoked salmon has an increased antioxidant capacity compared with unprocessed salmon.


Wild Caught Salmon From Fishermen We Know By Name


All of our fish are caught using a hook and fishing line. They never go through the machinery that salmon canneries use, which negatively affects the taste and texture of the fish. Most commercially caught fish also sit around on the boat before being bled out, which negatively affects the taste and quality of the meat. These salmon are bled right away on the boat, resulting in the most premium and flavorful salmon you can get. They’re then pressure sealed and flash frozen at the peak of freshness.

With these methods, having our flash frozen salmon delivered to you is actually highly preferable to buying fresh, unfrozen salmon unless you happen to be or live next door to a skilled fisherman. And even if that’s the case, the waters we source from off the Alaskan coast are some of the most pristine on the planet, making it very unlikely to find better fish anywhere else.

As with all fish, it’s very important to choose wild caught salmon over farmed. Farmed salmon are fed processed fish feed and exposed to large amounts of antibiotics, pesticides and other chemicals. Their nutritional value is vastly different from wild salmon. Farmed salmon contains much higher levels of fat (about three times as much) especially omega-6 fatty acids which most Americans already consume far too many of. It has 46% more calories, most of which are from fat. It’s also quite deficient in vitamins and minerals compared with wild caught salmon.
