Temporarily trading my rifle and bow for a fishing rod? Just temporary!

Fishing is actually hunting with a hook. In some river angling circles they call it hunting because they stalk the fish.

This winter, I am getting into my kitchen, chefing of wild Alaskan halibut and salmon I hope to catch in June? You bet!

A nice wild addition to my moose, bear, venison and boar dinners. 

I ordered direct from Alaska to further my  recipe  development. I found an Alaskan provider and direct shipper. Yes, it is expensive but here goes. 

I ordered from Alaska’s Tanner Seafood

I intend to to test out some recipes before I go on my Alaska trip.

Why?

With some fishing expertise on my part, I hope to bring home plenty for my freezer, and feed my friends and family. 

The foundation ingredients for these fish include my mouth watering favorites; lemon, butter, herbs and garlic among many other savory ingredients. 

Interestingly, I will be working on mouth puckering Aioli and Pesto recipes to compliment and enhance these Alaskan Ocean gems. 

I love chefing salmon sushi in my home for years with Atlantic salmon.  It will be interesting to taste compare my Norway farmed Atlantic salmon sushi and sashimi below against wild Alaskan sockeye salmon sushi. In this photo I also served Atlantic yellowfin tuna sashimi, soo good!

The Alaskan fish will be drop shipped to my door in the next week or two.

Good Eats! Talk soon…
