Fresh Sashimi-grade Tasmanian Atlantic Salmon No Skin - No bones - No blood — Ready for slicing at home
Ready to slice for Sashimi, in the comfort of your home, just like your favourite Sushi Shop.
Salmon arrives daily from Tasmania, is processed and sent the same day to your home.

The flavour of Atlantic salmon is milder than that of the wild salmon species. The meat is moderately firm and oily, though not as fatty as that of the wild chinook, or king, salmon. The flesh colour varies, depending on the amount of pigment in the feed, but generally Atlantics’ meat is a rich orange or pinkish-orange colour. The fatty meat appears almost marbled when raw. Atlantic salmon retains its colour when cooked and has a large, moist flake.

This Salmon portion has been cut from the best of the best and trimmed by our professional Japanese cutters to give you this high quality Sashimi grade Atlantic Salmon

This fillet is Sashimi Grade but must be consumed as sashimi within 3 days from the date the fillet is packed. Fresh fillets older than 3 days must be fully cooked before they are consumed.

NOT TO MENTION WE ALSO HAVE:

Cooked Lobster $23.99 Each, Oysters $16.2/Dozen, Whole Large Prawns $28.9, Smoked Salmon $29.9 @ Melbourne Seafood Market

    $35.90 per kg, but it starts from 1.5 kg, title is kinda misleading

      Sorry about that.

      We weigh all seafood by measurements of 500g or 1kg.

      Our salmon fillet weights start at 1.5kg each, so that's why the title is like that :)

    • pjw on 15/06/2020 - 16:22

      Anyone know where I can get something similar in Sydney? All I can see here is around $80/kg.

          The fillet is pretty big as it starts from 1.5kg, so we recommend if you have any left you can freeze it into portuions as it will last for 3 months in the freezer :)

    doesn’t seem cheaper than south melbourne or victoria market, and i don’t need to take 1.5 kg ….

    if you live near knew tassal have their shop outlet ….the smoked salmon they have in 500gms has never been frozen ….unlike at coles or woolies.

        Our fresh smoked salmon is only $29.9 for roughly 1kg and has never been frozen as well :)

        We understand 1kg might be a lot so as it has never been frozen you can then zip lock portions and freeze them for a later date, but try not to eat it all over a course of a week :)

      Ummm at your own risk I guess you could…

      The salmon at Coles is left out in that display cabinet day in day out until it is purchased or by its due date. Our salmon is no more than 16hrs out of the water before it hits your door allowing it to be eaten raw with quality guaranteed for 3 days before you must cook it through.

          At the moment a 25-30km radius around Melbourne but hopefully by the end of the week we will do 50km plus (Bendigo, Ballarat, Geelong and Phillip Island)

          Our Oysters are from Tasmania, From March until the end of the year Oysters are good. Only during February, it is hard to find good oysters because they are spawning, in saying that some people wait especially until this time as it changes the taste of the oyster and gives it a more milky buttery taste

      most of the salmon sold in the market are farmed unless clearly marked as wild

    • AssociatedJohn3333 @ Melbourne Seafood Market on 15/06/2020 - 16:15

      It is farmed in Tasmania chingy213

  • garage sale on 15/06/2020 - 16:10

    yes Australian if farmed. You can get wild salmon at some outlets from New Zealand. Seems the accelrated growth makes them deaf due to deformaties,

    https://about.unimelb.edu.au/newsroom/news/2017/august/deafn…

    you don't eat the ears , but it probabaly reflects what they are fed to make them grow so quick vs new zealand wild salmon, and people were worried about hormones in chicken or beef.

      100% safer to eat than the Hulk grown chicken for KFC :)

      Huon Salmon are fed a great diet listed bellow making Huon Salmon an award-winning producer of seafood

      Fish meal and fish oil, which is sourced from certified wild fisheries, and the off-cuts from other fish species. Salmon farmers worldwide have been working on a fish oil and fish meal substitute for many years and we have reduced our use from around 45% fishmeal to 18%. There are now diets that require no fishmeal, and instead, use oils produced from algae which provide the Omega-3s in the salmon which is essential for a healthy diet. The majority of fish meal in the diets in future will most likely come from off-cuts that would otherwise be disposed of.

      Moreover, some 30% of fish meal globally is made from trimmings, not wild catch. The fish that makes up fish meal are typically small, bony pelagic fish that aren’t generally used for human consumption.

      Vegetable ingredients such as wheat, soya derivatives, corn gluten and vegetable oils.

      Vitamins and minerals and astaxanthin.

      Astaxanthin is a powerful antioxidant that salmon need for healthy muscle growth and egg production and which also provides the salmon with the signature orange hue to the flesh. Huon uses naturally derived astaxanthin from algae.

      Meat and chicken meal, blood meal, and poultry oil. By using land-animal by-products in our feed, we are helping to utilise ‘waste’ from other farming, which improves the sustainability of both land-based and sea-based aquaculture farming production.

      the feed does not contain ingredients of genetically modified (transgenic) origin. And we never feed our fish growth hormones or growth promoters. Nor does it contain pork or pork by-products.

  • coboz on 15/06/2020 - 19:53

    How do we make sure it doesn’t contain parasites? I heard that it needs to be frozen below -26 degrees before it is defrosted to be eaten in raw.

    • AssociatedJohn3333 @ Melbourne Seafood Market on 16/06/2020 - 05:25

      Hello,

      All our Salmon is sourced exclusively from Huon, please read this if you have any concerns about eating raw salmon.

      Biosecurity is not only a matter of good hygiene, disinfection procedures and preventing the spread of disease between different geographical farming regions – we believe best-practice biosecurity measures demand that our fish have good nutrition, live in high-quality water and avoid stress. All these factors contribute to our salmon being less susceptible to disease and infection.

      Huon Aquaculture has a biosecurity plan that covers all aspects of fish farming and processing. This includes education and training, and implementing good fish husbandry through water quality management, health monitoring, vaccine use and on-going research.

      Key aspects of our plan include:

      intensive monitoring and reporting of fish health status
      strategic testing of stock before transfer between sites
      early identification, investigation, diagnosis and mitigation of disease incidents
      comprehensive Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) which clearly outline husbandry and disinfection to avoid spread of disease organisms
      monitoring of healthy fish and the prevention of the spread of disease organisms between different geographical areas. These disease organisms include viruses, bacteria and parasites.

      Tasmania is fortunate to be free of many of the serious diseases which affect salmon overseas. We work closely with Commonwealth and State governments to maintain strict quarantine regulations to protect our unique environment.

      In 2013 Peter and Frances Bender won Biosecurity Farmer of the Year at the Australian Farmer of the Year Awards.

      At Huon, we believe that disease control in salmon requires a holistic approach. Good site management, fish husbandry and rigorous biosecurity measures are central to reducing the risk of disease outbreaks and controlling the spread of infectious diseases.

      Vaccines are important in preventing disease outbreaks but cannot control all losses. Medication such as antibiotics are also important but should only be used as a last line of defence to avoid significant animal welfare issues and stock losses. This mindset means that we are continually working to develop proactive diet regimes and vaccines to allow our salmon to combat known illnesses and lead healthy lives.

      If our vet feels there is a need to treat fish with antibiotics it is supervised, reported and strictly regulated by the government.

      It is important to note that the antibiotics are allowed to pass through the fish long before it is harvested, in accordance with regulatory requirements.

      Huon has not used antibiotics at sea since 2016 when a single pen was treated.

      We do not use antibiotics in our Recirculation Aquaculture System (RAS) facilities – and 78% of all our salmon is completely grown in a RAS facility. We don’t use antibiotics at our RAS facilities because the waste management systems at these sites are based on biological filtration processes. These filters are coated in good bacteria which keeps the system in balance and use of antibiotics would destroy the good bacteria as well as the bad.

      Lonnavale was our first RAS facility, representing a shift from our traditional flow-through style hatcheries. Forest Home (at the time) represented the second generation of our recirculation hatcheries while Whale Point in the future; it includes a state of the art internal water treatment system which enables the facility to re-use 98 per cent of its water every single day; the remaining 2 per cent is re-used offshore for bathing, thereby achieving 100 per cent water reuse.

      Where we occasionally use antibiotics are at our flow-through hatchery sites which are classified as non-consumptive, i.e., water comes in, goes through the fish, is cleaned up and goes through some form of waste/nutrient removal (drums screens, settlement ponds, reed beds) before being returned to the waterways. (The most recent usage was in January 2019 at our Springfield site).

    OP, just put my order through.
    A bit of feedback that your website seems to be quite badly designed (or just really old). It is very clunky and very hard to navigate (compared to other e-commerce sites nowadays). It felt like navigating websites from the early 2000s.

    The payment component seems to be more up-to-date, but it seems to be because you are using stripe as a POS interface.

    There are lots of OzBargainers that are in IT, who can probably suggest someone that can help you fix this. I know from my experience, it was annoying enough that I almost gave up. FYI, i remember reading an article that a good e-commerce site can actually increase your revenue.

    I got my delivery this morning while I was reading your comments, so I can vouch for how good your business model is. Happy wife = happy life.
    :)

    As an IT consultant, I know that a lot of businesses are struggling with e-commerce.
    The main problem with your website is not actually the colour or the layout. They look okay.
    However, it is not very usable/user-friendly. There are plenty of UX consultants around Melbourne that does these sort of consultancies (I can only vouch for those I have worked with).

    What you can do is to get your friends/families to test out the website, with very basic things like:
    - Searching for a product
    - Ordering a product
    - Looking at product description
    Get them to test the above on mobile devices/tablet/desktop. You want those testing to be independent and honest.
    The above are unfortunately very clunky in your website. If you get the above right with the current layout, you will actually be fine.

    I don't know whether you built the website yourself or got someone else to do it, but be careful with consultancies as there are those out there that will charge your whole warehouse to upgrade it.

    If you need more help, send me a PM and I can point u in the right direction.
