King Salmon, Raw
King salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha), also called Chinook, is a premium Pacific salmon species prized for its high fat content and vibrant orange-red flesh colored by natural astaxanthin pigments. This largest salmon variety contains nearly twice the omega-3 fatty acids of other wild salmon, offering cardiovascular benefits alongside substantial protein, though its rich marbling increases calorie density. The firm, buttery raw flesh is favored for sushi-grade preparations and quick cooking methods that preserve its delicate texture.
