Sorry, Canada.

Honest!

We’ve compiled some of the top authentic salmon recipes for the chefs in the family, and we’re sure these dishes will make you crave Alaska wild salmon forever after.

Alaska wild salmon is completely different from any other kind of salmon you’ve ever had. It’s denser. It’s tastier. And it’s healthier because, first of all, unlike farm-raised salmon or Atlantic salmon, Alaska salmon live on a natural diet that includes plankton and shrimp. In addition, they are not artificially colored, and they’re not crammed with antibiotics like farmed salmon or wild-caught in other parts of the planet.

There are five different types of Alaska salmon: Coho (or silver) salmon; King (or chinook); sockeye (red); pink and chum. Each has nuanced flavors, but King is considered the best-tasting Alaska wild fish because of its rich flavor and high-fat contents. Still, you can’t go wrong with any of the others.
