What is Sablefish?
Sablefish is a species of deep-sea fish that is prized for its rich, buttery texture and high oil content. It is often referred to as black cod, although it is not a true cod species. Sablefish is primarily harvested in the North Pacific Ocean, including waters off the coast of Alaska and British Columbia. This fish is known for its delicate, flaky flesh and is often used in various culinary applications such as smoking, grilling, and baking. It is also valued for its high levels of omega-3 fatty acids, which are beneficial for heart health.
