Sablefish

Alaskan Sablefish: Rich, Buttery, and Deeply Satisfying

Sablefish is often called Black Cod and is one of Alaska's best-kept secrets. This deep-water fish boasts silky, almost velvety texture and rich, buttery flavor that rivals the finest salmon. With higher oil content than most whitefish, Sablefish stays incredibly moist during cooking and practically melts on your fork. It's a favorite in high-end Japanese cuisine (where it's called "gindara") and among chefs who know that this unassuming fish delivers luxury in every bite. If you love King Salmon or prefer fish with serious richness, Sablefish deserves a spot in your rotation.

Forgiving, Flavorful, and Worth Discovering

Sablefish's high fat content means it's nearly impossible to overcook, it stays tender and succulent even if you're not precise with timing. Its rich flavor holds up to miso glazes, soy-based marinades, or simple roasting with nothing but salt and lemon. This is sophisticated eating without fussy preparation. Once you try Sablefish, you'll understand why those in the know consider it one of Alaska's finest catches. Ready to discover another new favorite fish?
