Black Cod with Sena Sea

Play episode

On today’s episode we welcome back Rich and Sena Wheeler of Sena Sea to talk about black cod, a.k.a. sablefish. This deep ocean fish is silky, rich, and full of Omega-3 acids. What makes it different from other fish caught in Alaska, and how can a home cook get the best results when preparing it? We cover it all as we go deep on black cod with Sena Sea.

Mentioned in this Episode

Please check out Small Axe Peppers Hot Sauce. The hot sauce is made from peppers grown in community garden in cities across the United States. You can get a limited edition gift set with a t-shirt and two bottles of hot sauce and pepper seeds, or even individual bottles of hot sauce. I took a picture of the gift set so you could see it for yourself:

Sena Sea

Rich and Sena Wheeler have been on the show before, and it is always a pleasure. This time around they are teaching me all about Black Cod a.k.a. Sablefish.

Not only do Rich and Sena sell black cod through their company Sena Sea, they also catch it, process it, freeze it, and ship it to you when you order it. They truly are “hands-on” so you know exactly where your fish comes from from the moment it is pulled onto the boat. They also have a variety of recipes for sablefish and other Alaskan fish on their website.

Black Cod, also referred to as sablefish, is a rich, fatty, fish that thrives in the cold, deep waters of the Pacific Ocean.

Of course you can order sustainably-caught black cod/sablefish from Sena Sea. It makes a great gift (as does their smoked salmon jar combo packs). You can also try your local fish market for Sablefish.
