NEW Herbs & Spices
Certified Organic and Kosher
|
|
Customers had often asked us to expand our seasoning offerings beyond our Organic Salmon Marinade blend. We thought they had a good idea, but it took time to secure superior sources.
Each fresh, flavorful seasoning in our new line of 10 Organic Herbs & Spices is certified Organic and Kosher (OU), and is naturally rich in beneficial “phytoceutical” compounds.
And if, like many, your pantry harbors some old, faded seasonings, our Herbs and Spices Medley package—which includes our Organic Salmon Marinade blend—will upgrade your seasonings scene in one fell swoop!

Like Your Lox Luscious?
Ours Makes Mouths Water
|
|
Vital Choice smoked salmon is far superior to the preservative-laden farmed product found in most grocery stores.
After curing in natural alder wood smoke, our Smoked Sockeye Portions and silky, Cold-Smoked Sliced Nova Lox are immediately vacuum-packed and flash-frozen. Thawed and served, they taste as though they came fresh out of the smoker.
"I am in love with the hot-smoked salmon. It is fabulous flaked and scrambled with eggs and onions. They give the eggs a lovely zing." — Dana Jacobi, author of 12 Best Foods Cookbook.

The World's Finest Fish Oil
|
|
We put only whole, unrefined oil from wild Alaskan sockeye salmon in our premium salmon oil supplements. Wild Alaskan sockeye salmon is one of the cleanest fish in the sea: a trait reflected in the purity of our unrefined sockeye oil, which is now certified by NSF: one of the best-respected independent labs in the U.S.
Because our naturally pure salmon oil does not need to be distilled, it provides the essential omega-3 fatty acids (EPA & DHA), plus 30 other natural fatty acids and astaxanthin: the potent antioxidant that gives sockeye its distinctive deep-red color.
Last, but not least, ours comes in pure fish-gelatin capsules and it is the only salmon oil supplement certified as sustainably sourced by the Marine Stewardship Council (www.msc.org).

Why Our Albacore Tuna's A Cut Above
|
|
Our young, low-weight Pacific Albacore Tuna—fresh or canned—is simply superior!
Smaller means safer: Vital Choice troll-caught tuna weigh just 12 lbs. or less, so they contain less mercury, and more omega-3s, than the larger troll-caught tuna touted by other “minimal mercury” vendors.
No loitering allowed: Our tuna are hauled in fast, bled, and flash-frozen within about two hours. (Standard long-line-caught albacore spend 12 hours in the water.)
Better, fresher flavor, even in the can: Unlike standard canned albacore—which is cooked twice at great cost to flavor and omega-3 content—Vital Choice tuna is cooked only once (in the can) to preserve its healthful oils and fresh flavor.

Savor the "Chocolate of the Sea"
|
|
Sablefish is rarely seen in standard fish markets, but is highly prized in Japan, which corners almost the entire North American catch.
This buttery, flaky, white fish boasts its own rich texture and mind-blowing flavor—and even more omega-3s than wild salmon!
We also offer irresistible smoked sablefish. Boasting a rich golden color, these scrumptious, oven-ready steaks are infused with delicate alder wood smoke flavor—and cook fully from frozen in mere minutes!

NEW! FlavorWave Oven
The perfect way to cook fish--fresh or frozen
by Randy Hartnell
Everyone at Vital Choice loves this machine so much that we wanted to share it with you. The FlavorWave oven is truly the ideal way to cook fish. In fact, it offers a quick, healthy way to cook almost any kind of food.
One of the most frequent complaints we hear stems from dried out fish due to overcooking. With the Flavorwave’s simple-to-use timer and alarm this is no longer a problem. Simply set the optimum cooking time—whatever suits your taste—and minutes later it alerts you that your food is done to perfection. Our 6-ounce fillets cook in about 7 minutes—12 minutes or so if frozen. Clean up of the FlavorWave is an absolute snap—a major advantage when it comes to cooking fish.
How does the FlavorWave oven work?
Infrared heat energy (sometimes known as radiant heat) moves directly from the source to the target, without heating the air in between. The advantage of infrared cooking is that it penetrates the food, cooking it more rapidly, without causing the exterior burning of regular convection-heat ovens or the unsatisfactory results of microwave systems.
Note: the Flavorwave base has a 15" x 14" footprint, so it will require only that much of your counter top. We use ours so frequently that we consider it counter space well spent.
Like all Vital Choice products the Flavor Wave oven is satisfaction guaranteed. I urge you to give it a try!
