About Chum salmon
Chum salmon is a Pacific salmon with a streamlined body and silvery appearance at sea; its colouring changes during spawning. The flesh is generally lighter and firmer than that of some other salmon, with a relatively mild flavour.
It is sold fresh or frozen in whole-fish, steak, and fillet forms, and is also canned, smoked, or dried. Cooking methods include baking, grilling, and poaching. Fresh fish and preserved products differ in moisture and may include added salt or other ingredients.
