At Acme Smoked Fish, we're always striving to bring you the best in premium smoked salmon. That's why we're thrilled to introduce our latest product: 3 oz. Wild Alaskan Sockeye Smoked Salmon. This delightful offering promises to deliver the exceptional quality and flavor that Acme is known for, in a convenient size perfect for 1-2 servings.
If you’ve enjoyed our Blue Hill Bay 3 oz. Sockeye Smoked Salmon, then you’re in for a treat with this new Acme-branded version. Both products share the same roots of quality and flavor, but the Acme version brings a fresh new look and convenient easy-open packaging to a beloved smoked salmon classic. Building upon that legacy, this new product embodies the best of our smoked salmon expertise.
Our sockeye salmon is caught wild in the pristine waters of Bristol Bay, Alaska, a region celebrated for its sustainable fishery management. Sockeye salmon (Oncorhynchus nerka), also known as red or blueback salmon, are one of the smaller species of Pacific salmon, typically found in coastal waters stretching from Oregon to Northwest Alaska. These fish are prized for their deep red flesh, firm texture, and lean, bright orange color.
Our process begins with sustainably harvested salmon, known for its delightful flavor and pleasant minerality. The fish is dry-cured and cold smoked over North American hardwood, ensuring that the succulence of the salmon is preserved while its natural flavors are enhanced. The cold smoking process, conducted at temperatures below 90°F, maintains the buttery texture and layers of flavor that our customers love.
There's a reason this product’s predecessor, Blue Hill Bay 3 oz. Sockeye Smoked Salmon, won the Gold Sofi Award from the Specialty Food Association in 2019. This firm, flavorful, and robust fish takes on smoke beautifully, resulting in a multi-layered, distinctly delicious taste that keeps you coming back for more. It's no wonder that sockeye is frequently cited as a favorite among wild salmon enthusiasts. Dare we say (humbly of course) that our Acme 3 oz. Wild Sockeye Smoked Salmon is an improvement on this tried-and-true classic.
Our 3 oz. Wild Alaskan Sockeye Smoked Salmon is not just for snacking; it's a versatile ingredient that can elevate a wide range of dishes. Whether you’re preparing a gourmet meal or a quick bite, this smoked salmon pairs perfectly with a variety of flavors and ingredients. It shines in dishes featuring basil, cilantro, bell peppers, citrus, sour cream, Dijon mustard, red onion, mixed greens, and of course an old-fashioned bagel with cream cheese, to name just a few.
Consider adding it to your next taco night, mixing it into a summer panzanella salad, or topping off a hearty and nutritious grain bowl. The possibilities are endless, and each bite promises to deliver the rich, smoky flavor that Acme Smoked Fish is known for.
Sockeye salmon is treasured for its deep red coloration and delightful flavor, accompanied by a pleasant minerality. With mature fish typically weighing between 5-15 pounds, sockeye is smaller than coho salmon but has robust, yet sweet, flavor. Its firm, lean flesh is ideal for smoking, allowing it to absorb the smoky flavors beautifully without losing its natural texture.
Sustainability is at the heart of what we do. The sockeye salmon used in our products are harvested in a manner that supports the long-term health of fish stocks and their environment. This commitment to sustainable practices ensures that we can continue to offer the finest smoked salmon for generations to come.
We invite you to try our new 3 oz. Wild Alaskan Sockeye Smoked Salmon and experience the Acme difference for yourself. This product represents our dedication to quality, sustainability, and culinary excellence. Whether you’re a long-time fan of smoked fish or new to the experience, we’re confident that this latest addition to our product lineup will quickly become a favorite.
