Sashimi 'Saku' Selections

'Saku' is the Japanese term to describe a uniformly cut block of skinless, boneless sashimi-quality seafood. This chef-loved shape makes easy work of sashimi and sushi - simply slice and serve! Not only are saku cuts ideal for sashimi, sushi, and other raw presentations like crudo, they can be pan seared and sliced for a salad or entrée.

Choose from the following Saku Selections: (Availability varies, see asterick*)

Ōra King Salmon (~8oz)

Certified sustainable under the Global Aquaculture Alliance for ‘Best Aquaculture Practices’, this world-renowned salmon offers a rich yet mild flavor, stunning marbling, and a desirable fatty texture that's slightly firmer than Atlantic. 

Origin: New Zealand

Method: Farmed / Fresh

Note: may contain some pin bones as it is very difficult to remove all of them, but they are easily removed with tweezers.

Scottish Salmon

Sustainably harvested premium Atlantic salmon that offers an irresistibly smooth, buttery texture and a milder, more refined flavor than wild salmon.

Origin: Scotland

Method: Farmed / Fresh
