Editorial Reviews: Sockeye salmon fillet, marinated and then alder smoked. Seven Seas uses only wild Pacific salmon, caught in the open waters of the Pacific Ocean. It uses no artificial preservatives or additives. Sockeye salmon makes one of the best eating fishes in the world, but it is often served quite hideously tarted up by an intrusive chef who has applied scales made of sugar paste. The Salish are a people who live, among other places, on the southern part of Vancouver Island and some surrounding islets. Sockeye is the English version of the Coast Salish an apt name for this frisky Pacific salmon. Or, it may derive directly from Northern Straits Salish seqey red fish.
