Alaskan smoked salmon is a type of wild salmon that can be found in the cold waters just off Alaska. This variety belongs to the group of Pacific smoked salmon. It's usually hot-smoked using traditional Native American techniques. The texture of the flesh is usually silky or firm, but it can depend on the brine that was used for wet-curing the fish.


Alaskan smoked salmon is also called King salmon, and it's widely available due to sustainable populations.

It's often used in pasta dishes, sandwiches, and appetizers. Originally, Norway was the first to begin with Atlantic salmon farming, and nowadays smoked salmon from across the world is incorrectly labeled as Norwegian smoked salmon.
