ALASKA POLLOCK

Walleye pollock is usually available in single or twice-frozen fillets either deep-skinned or with the fat layer intact; fresh pollock exists but isn’t common. Deep-skinning the fish results in whiter fillets, but the lower meat yield tends to mean paying a higher price for the fillets.

ALASKA POLLOCK

This fish has a delicate, sweet flavor; compared to Atlantic pollock they are smaller, have whiter flesh, and less oil. Whole fish average 3lbs. pounds in size, and fish from the Gulf of Alaska tend to be the largest.

About 40% of the walleye pollock in the U.S. market is from Russian fisheries, and mostly imported after being processed in China.

The supply of walleye pollock is large, stable, and available year-round. According to some buyers, the highest quality walleye pollock is from factories that freeze the fish at sea right after it’s caught. Marketing note: As of January 21, 2016, only pollock caught in Alaskan waters can carry the name "Alaskan pollock."
