Harvested from the frigid waters of the North Pacific, Organic Ocean’s ling cod are considered among the finest examples of white-fleshed seafood. To ensure that these fish are produced in compliance with the guiding principles established by the recognized sustainable seafood certification bodies, they must be harvested from stocks that are healthy, abundant and managed to maintain or increase their populations while minimizing impact on the habitat, bycatch and other marine life.

These sashimi quality Side Strip Shrimp tails come frozen in seawater in 1lb containers. Harvested in the coastal inlets and fjords of the North coast of British Columbia, the Side. Because they are herbivores they are caught via beam trawl and a finely graded & highly selective net. As they are caught, the Side Stripe shrimp are immediately sorted and graded for size, tailed, rinsed and flash frozen at extremely low temperatures in brine-filled containers preserving the remarkably sweet yet delicate flavor and firm texture without the use of chemicals. Many of these shrimp will contain roe or eggs. The roe is edible and quite delicious. It has a much more mild flavour in comparison to ikura, salmon roe.

Working with sustainable seafood advocacy groups, Organic Ocean has been a leader in steering chefs to the environmentally responsible wild Pacific shrimp and away from the farmed variety. By comparison, wild Pacific shrimp are a healthy source of the antioxidant and anti-inflammatory astaxanthin and Omega-3 fatty acids which, in addition to their firm texture and sweet, delicate and succulent flavor, has established them as among the finest crustaceans our ocean’s surrender.

The wild B.C. spot prawn fishery has become a sustainability benchmark for the wild capture fisheries. By harvesting with baited traps spread along the rocky ocean floor, this fishery has little impact on the sea bed and sees limited bycatch of other species.
