King Salmon Collars & Tails Box
Product Description
This tips-to-tails box includes two unique cuts of king salmon: collars and bone-in tail portions. These end cuts allow us to make maximum use of the limited and highly-prized king salmon, while giving our members an opportunity to save on this wild delicacy. The collar is perhaps the most succulent, tender part of a king salmon. Cut just behind the gills, it includes the collarbone and fatty, rich belly meat. Like a chicken wing, it has cartilage and bones to work around, but the juicy and delicate morsels make it well worth it. The tail portions, on the other hand, are unique in that they are split lengthwise through the spine, and contain both the vertebrae and occasional rib bone. These bones are easily removed after cooking, and have the added benefit of keeping the fish especially moist. You can use these tails in any recipe for salmon that is roasted, grilled, poached, steamed, sous vide, broiled, or smoked. Simply skip the direction to remove pin bones, and instead, remove the spine bones just before serving. Note that neither cut lends itself well to raw preparations due to bone placement. Expect to receive 2 collars and 4 to 6 tail portions per box.
