Plain Canned Salmon, peas, and saltines

Salmon Wiggle

·
Written by Wildfish Cannery

Some call it “Creamed Salmon and Peas'' but that’s too stodgy for such a joyous meal that offers the easy contentment most of us leave behind in childhood and only hope to find again as elders. Each bite is like the best bowl of chowder, it's a recipe that tried and tested for generations, a must try.

This New England chowder with our smoked geoduck will fast become a favorite in your recipe rotation. Geoduck chowder isn’t unheard of in Alaska and the Pacific Northwest, but it’s definitely a rarity. Thanks to local clam diver Curtis Brown and the smokehouse team here at Wildfish (the only producer of smoked geoduck in the world!) you no longer have to settle for basic New England chowder at home. The crisp, clean woodsmoke of the geoduck and can broth will transport you to a misty, Northwestern mental safespace.

Gabe's Classic Coho Salmon Melt

Gabe's Classic Coho Salmon Melt

Written by Mathew Scaletta

This recipe originated from our Master Smoker, Gabe Stoltz. When Gabe’s not at Wildfish, he’s exploring the Pacific Northwest’s best underground skate spots, which we promised him we wouldn’t reveal here. Not only is skateboarding not a crime, it’s not easy either. In fact it's the type of sport where concrete meets flesh, a lot. So like all extreme sports, solid recovery food is critical. Enter Gabe’s Classic Coho melt. This melt is packed with protein and is so easy to prepare. Enjoy!

Fisherman's Stew (Smoked Cioppino)

Fisherman's Stew (Smoked Cioppino)

·
Written by Mathew Scaletta
This recipe for Fisherman's Stew will net many smiles. Fisherman's Stew (also called cioppino) is a rustic seafood stew with origins in the Liguria region of Italy, and variations of cioppino are sometimes called brodetto or brudet in historically Italian regions of coastal Croatia. It is a traditional fisherman’s stew made from the catch of the day, generally with smaller species of net fish that don’t command as much money at market. Through the magic of canning, it does not rely on having an Italian fisherman in the family. It’s best to prepare this easy, lusty fish stew in a large, wide saucepan.
