Fresh Salmon

Australian salmon, mainly Atlantic salmon, is farmed in the cold, pristine waters of Tasmania - the island known as "the jewel of the Southern Hemisphere". Thanks to ideal environmental conditions, Australian salmon has the following standout characteristics:

Colour: The flesh is a vibrant, glossy orange-pink, with evenly distributed white fat.

Texture: Firm, soft and smooth, rich but not cloying, ideal for both raw and cooked dishes.

Flavour: Clean, sweet and rich, with a characteristic light, buttery finish that sets it apart from other salmon.

Quality: Farmed on ASC (Aquaculture Stewardship Council) certified farms, ensuring no antibiotics or growth hormones are used.

Thanks to clean seas and sustainable farming, Australian salmon always retains its freshness and high quality, making it a top choice for premium meals.

How Is Australian Salmon Different From Norwegian Salmon?

Comparing Australian and Norwegian salmon, both are quality imported salmon, but there are some notable differences:

Farming environment: Australian salmon is farmed in the waters of Tasmania, with cold, clean ocean currents. Norwegian salmon is farmed in the fjords of Northern Europe, also an ideal environment but with colder seawater.

Texture: Australian salmon has softer, less chewy flesh with a rich layer of fat. Norwegian salmon is usually firmer, suitable for sashimi.

Flavour: Australian salmon is clean, sweet and lightly rich, ideal for grilling or pan-searing. Norwegian salmon has a stronger, slightly salty flavour, suitable for raw dishes.

Colour: Australian salmon is a bright orange-pink, while Norwegian salmon is usually darker, leaning towards orange-red.

Price: Australian salmon is usually more reasonably priced thanks to efficient farming, while Norwegian salmon is more expensive due to shipping costs and branding.

Depending on your preference and the dish, you can choose Australian salmon for cooked dishes or Norwegian salmon for raw dishes.
