Cured Offering Fine Salmon

I've previously mentioned the wonderful shop Cured's new fresh fish program, where you can pick up your pre-ordered special fish offering on Fridays. This week it is a fine-sounding Canadian farmed salmon, as we await the start of the fresh wild salmon season, drawing ever closer. Here's part of what Cured says about it (I'm thinking they just missed a zero on the cents in the price), and they are also offering morels for $50 a pound (but you don't need a pound!) to go with it. Note orders need to be in by 4 tomorrow. Here's part of what they say, so get in touch with Cured for further info:

So, when we saw Skuna Bay Salmon on the fresh sheet from Seattle Fish Co, we simply couldn’t resist. Skuna Bay Salmon are raised in a natural ocean environment off the coast of Vancouver Island in the Nootka Sound. This area is the perfect environment to raise salmon given its glacier-fed waters from the God River, which flow into the Pacific Ocean. Skuna Bay’s Craftsman farmers live on the farm 24/7 and work daily to ensure the natural waters stay as pristine as when the farm was first established. Their farmers are wonderful stewards of the ocean; once fish are harvested from a Skuna site, that ocean location is allowed to rest and regenerate before being restocked. 33% of Skuna Bay’s farm sites are always in fallow, meaning farmers intentionally sacrifice potential farm use to protect the ocean environment. When ready for harvest, the salmon is selected by one of six approved salmon experts at a small, family owned operation by salmon professionals who have been grading salmon for over

ten years. By using a 14 grade criteria they ensure that only the very best salmon are chosen. The Skuna Bay exclusive process of harvest, hand cleaning, selection and packingby their 6 approved salmon inspectors ensures that only the best 6% of harvest make the Skuna Bay standard. Only the best will do for Mr. Holden ;-) Coming in at $19.5/lb for filet cuts, let us know how much you would like by Thursday at 4 and we’ll have it waiting for youFriday afternoon! Plus, since we can’t resist pulling out all the stops, we are also offering preorders on morel mushrooms, which just so happen to go perfectly with salmon! $50/lb, just let us know how many you would like and we’ll have them waiting for you Friday evening!
