ASMI How to Fillet Salmon - Halibut Videos

In September, the Alaska Seafood Marketing Institute (ASMI) filmed four short quality videos highlighting proper thawing of headed and gutted (h/g) salmon, salmon filleting, and halibut filleting.

The videos are produced in concert with the Technical program and will be shared online, serving as a resource for industry, processors, distributors, retail, foodservice, and consumer audiences alike.

BristolBaySockeye.org Launched by Bristol Bay Regional Seafood Development Association

The Bristol Bay Regional Seafood Development Association (BBRSDA) has launched a new website (BristolBaySockeye.org) which provides extensive information to consumers about the Bristol Bay wild sockeye salmon fishery.

According to the Association, Bristol Bay salmon is naturally rich in heart-healthy Omega 3s, lends itself to a wide variety of culinary preparations and hails from some of the most pristine waters on earth.

The website focuses on Bristol Bay itself, the personalities of the fishing fleet, and the abundant and sustainable salmon runs of the region.

The site is organized around the themes of Bristol Bay, Sustainability, Nutrition, the Faces of Bristol Bay and Recipes.

The website also provides a history of the fishery, and emphasizes the "Faces of the Fleet," through beautiful photography, a series of fisherman profiles, and a video of the 2010 season shot by Bristol Bay commercial fishermen.

Tanner Crab Community Supported Fishery in Anchorage Alaska

The Alaska Marine Conservation Council is piloting a Community Supported Fishery (CSF) in the Anchorage area that will offer Kodiak tanner crab harvested by small-boat fishermen to consumers. The program is called “Catch of the Season” and its goal is to empower traditional fishing communities.

The tanner crab CSF is offering 10- or 25-pound boxes of tanner crab to consumers in the Anchorage area. Seafood deliveries will include the story of the catch that tells the who, what, when, where and how of the catch.  Also included is a recipe from the fishermen.

The Council hopes to offer a regular schedule of seafood products throughout the year including salmon, halibut and cod, as well as a greater variety of pickup locations if initial shipments are a success. Local restaurants are also being encouraged to participate in the program and are provided a cost discount for larger volumes. The 10-pound boxes are $125, and the 25-pound boxes are $300.

For more information, visit http://akmarine.org. To subscribe to the CSF, contact Julia Beaty at (907)277-5357 or Julia@akmarine.org
