On today’s episode, Sena and Rich Wheeler of Sena Sea return to teach me all about the that most magnificent of red-fleshed fish, the Copper River Salmon. What exactly is a Copper River Salmon, why are they different than other salmon, and what are some tips for preparing them? We’ll cover all that and more as we head to the delta of the Copper River in Alaska.
Mentioned in this Episode
Rich and Sena are the force behind Sena Sea, a family-run business that fishes and processes out of Alaska, and ships their fish around the country. By they way, they don’t just fish for Salmon; they have halibut, cod, rockfish, shrimp, crab and more. While you’re at it, check out their Instagram.
Where do Copper River Salmon come from? Well, the Copper River obviously, but where exactly is that?
Copper River Salmon aren’t a unique species, but are largely made up of Sockeye and King salmons. Here’s a handy guide to salmon species for your next trip to the market.
