Best American Preserved Fish Types
Pacific smoked salmon is a broad category of salmon that's usually found in the Pacific Ocean, most commonly Alaska and Canada. Some of the most popular Pacific smoked salmon varieties include: Chum (or dog salmon), the least common variety; Canadian King Salmon, with ivory white to deep red flesh; Sockeye or red salmon, with a bright and deep red-orange flesh, Pink or humpback, the smallest and most common type, and Coho or silver salmon, with red flesh.
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.
Atlantic smoked salmon is a broad category that can include numerous types of smoked salmon found in the Eastern Seaboard of North America and in Northern Europe. The salmon has a rich and buttery flavor and it's cured and cold-smoked by using artisanal methods.
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.
