Подробнее о видео

What are the differences between Atlantic salmon and Sockeye salmon?

Procurement:
Atlantic salmon, specifically within the United States, is farm-raised while Sockeye salmon is typically wild-caught. 

Fat:
Because Atlantic salmon are farm-raised, they have a higher fat content than Sockeye salmon since they aren't using their muscles as much. 

Color:
Sockeye salmon is much darker than Atlantic salmon, mostly because of their diets in the wild. 

Taste:
If you're interested in a milder fish flavor, then Atlantic salmon is your thing. Sockeye salmon has a more robust, gamier flavor.
