Everyone knows that salmon tastes good. We serve you a few more facts:
ORIGIN Most
of the salmon on the market comes from Norwegian aquaculture. A good alternative, because according to the WWF, the natural stocks in the North Atlantic are in very bad shape. Temporary fishing bans were therefore issued for wild salmon, and only a few are traded.
REARING
In aquaculture, salmon are raised under species-appropriate conditions: After a year in fresh water, they are released in net enclosures in fjords or off the coast. There they grow for another two years until they are ready for the market.
QUALITY
Norwegian aquaculture salmon are regularly inspected by veterinarians and young fish are vaccinated against diseases – one of the reasons why it scores so well in independent tests. The salmon are optimally cared for by feeding them a nutrient-rich dry food; the feed and its production are subject to strict controls in Norway. The quality of wild salmon is subject to natural fluctuations. They are lighter in color and slightly lower in fat compared to aquaculture salmon.
INGREDIENTS
Salmon contains a high proportion of essential omega-3 fatty acids and fat-soluble vitamins such as A and D. It also provides a lot of vitamin B12. Both are important building blocks to protect the heart and cells.
SUSTAINABILITY
Every Norwegian fish farmer must have at least two breeding sites with clean sea water and suitable currents. He alternates between these farms regularly so that the water can regenerate faster and the environment is protected.
