They use Sockeye Salmon in their Alaska Smoked Salmon. For their Salmon Bites, they use Coho. Does Dear North use dyes or coloring agents to color their fish? Never. They do not use any dyes, colorings, or chemicals to enhance the color or flavor of their fish. The color of Alaska Salmon comes from nature and ranges from light orange to orange-red to deep red. Does Dear North irradiate their products? Again, never. They do not irradiate their products and never will. Is there any radioactivity in Alaska fish from the Fukushima reactor meltdown? Alaska seafood has never been tainted by the Fukushima nuclear disaster four years ago. The Alaska Division of Environmental Health made arrangements with the FDA to sample and directly test Alaska fish. Sampling has never detected radioactive contamination from Fukushima in Alaska seafood. Testing was performed in late 2015 at the FDA’s Winchester Engineering Analytical Center in Winchester, Massachusetts. As in 2014, no detectable levels of contamination from Fukushima were found. Does Dear North use preservatives to make their salmon shelf-stable? Nope. The non-perishable quality of their cans, jars, and retorts comes from the packaging process rather than from added chemicals. They pressure cook the salmon in jars, so all you’re getting is the fish’s own natural oils. What is the difference between “hot-smoked” and “cold-smoked?” Hot and cold refer to the smoking temperature. The temperature creates a different texture and flavor. Hot-smoking at high temperatures (about 150° F) creates a flakey, firmly-textured product. Cold-smoking at about 80° F creates a very moist, delicate product known as lox. What is the shelf life of their salmon products? The shelf life for their jarred smoked salmon is 2 years. The shelf life of their salmon bites is 12 months. How are the Alaska Salmon Bites different from the Smoked Alaska Salmon in a jar? Both products are made from fillets of wild salmon and are 100% natural. Their Alaska Smoked Salmon is wild-caught Sockeye, hot smoked in the traditional Alaska method and stored in glass jars. Great to snack on and put out for guests. Their Salmon Bites are wild-caught Coho, hot smoked, dehydrated and packaged for on-the-go snacking. They’re delicious little bites in four intriguing flavors, and they have a rich taste and tender texture. So they’re nothing like tough, dry, manly jerky. Is Dear North salmon wild? Yes, all their salmon is wild caught in the clean, clear waters of Alaska and then processed locally in their partner facilities. None of it is farmed. Is Dear North salmon organic?
