Norwegian Fjord Trout hits U.K shelves in shoals

October 10, 2016 by manjirichitnis 3 Comments

Norway – home to clear, pure, ice-cold, sparkling waters surrounded by majestic mountains with waterfalls and glaciers – also home to the  Norwegian fjord trout fish.  The only saltwater trout in the world that has the benefit of a unique environment,  a mix of seawater and pure glacial water melting into the fjord.

Norwegian Fjord

Norway has a great environment for aquaculture and fish-farming, thanks to their long and vast coastline, deep fjords, and of course clear and pure water. Responsibly farmed, the fjord trout are fed a nutritious diet to help them develop slowly.

The vibrant orange coloured flesh has a firm texture and delicate flavour. Perfect for raw dishes like sushi and sashimi. Since all of the fat is stored in the belly this oily fish is very lean the perfect choice for the health-conscious. Naturally high in omega 3 and essential vitamins, it is a great source of healthy protein.
