Mastering the acid cooking method of ceviche opens up a new world of bright fresh alchemy around your white fish species. It's no wonder it's called, Leche de Tigre (Tiger’s Milk). A heavy muscled fish like halibut and yelloweye does best with this Latin American triumph. More tender than raw fish and without the flake of heat-cooked fish, ceviche is a delicate and transcendental middle ground of fish preparation.  Follow the 5 main tenets of ceviche: premium fish, onion, pepper, lime and salt. Then riff by mixing in fruits to balance the acid and herbs to add depth of flavor. Lastly, play with the salt and lime juice ratio to your heart's desire. There is no wrong turn down the road to ceviche, but do not miss the off-ramp to orange juice, you will regret it!

A Proposed Alaska Mine Threatens Salmon

We provide our members with salmon from both the Chilkat and Chilkoot Rivers. These same rivers have sustained indigenous Tlingit communities since time immemorial. Now, the Chilkat River is under threat by a proposed mining development.

Prosciutto-Wrapped Halibut Skewers

Prosciutto gets delightfully crispy, protecting delicate halibut from the heat of the grill, and the light char on the croutons make them extra flavorful, especially when paired with a bright, herbaceous chimichurri sauce.

Pan-fried Cod With Chili Crisp

This sizzling ginger-garlic sauce is similar to the super popular, sometimes hard-to-keep-in-stock chili crisp (aka mala sauce), but uses everyday ingredients found in most pantries or supermarkets. Served over pan-fried cod with green beans and rice, it may become your new favorite condiment.
