Description
A hunk of delicious wild pink salmon caught in Southeast Alaska waters and a bit of salt is all you’ll find in this can. Pure Alaska Salmon Co. puts the hunk of wild salmon in the can, adds a little salt for flavor and then processes it. As a result, some liquid naturally occurs so you get salmon that is moist and delicious.
Pink salmon is actually pinky orange when it is caught but the cooking process changes the color so it actually looks more like the color of tuna when you open the can. It has a more mild flavor than wild Sockeye. In fact, you can use it in place of tuna in most recipes.
If you ate canned pink salmon many years ago, try it now. It tastes nothing like canned salmon used to. It is much, much better. It’s not mushy and has a better flavor.
Many people are deficient in omega-3s. The good news is, wild salmon is one of the richest, tastiest and readily available sources of marine-derived omega-3s. Wild salmon is also a good source of selenium, B-12 and vitamin D. By including wild salmon in your diet you help build good cell membranes, lower blood pressure, and you help your heart, eyes and mental health.
In general, wild salmon have relatively low concentrations of mercury. And the Marine Stewardship Council certifies Alaskan salmon as a “Best Environmental Choice.” All the Pure Alaska Salmon Co. salmon that we offer comes in BPA-free cans.

Try this premium pink salmon in wraps or on a whole wheat bagel for breakfast. We like to add a little lemon and dill to it. It keeps you feeling full for a long time.
