Wild, Sashimi-Grade, California Yellowtail Amberjack!

This particular species is commonly referred to as "Hamachi," although it is typically farmed in Japan. Our Nordic Catch Yellowtail, on the other hand, is wild caught around Baja California, resulting in a leaner and firmer texture compared to the more commonly farmed Hamachi.

Sourced locally, and delivered nationwide.

This cut of Yellowtail is packed just like your favorite Nordic Catch Seafood, airtight in a protective tray to prolong its flavor and integrity.

Product sleeve still in production! Will deliver blank!

Portion per pack

12oz steak.
Sashimi-Grade, great as sashimi!

Grading

Yellowtail does not traditionally receive grading. However, this wild-caught version is slightly leaner than traditional Japanese farmed Hamachi.

Certification

Line-caught, this California Yellowtail is rated a sustainable choice by Monterey Bay Aquarium Seafood Watch program.
Populations are healthy, and there is no overfishing of the species.

Cooking tips

If frozen, thaw slowly, like overnight in the refrigerator.

Questions about this Nordic Selection

Why Yellowfin Tuna?

Of all the tuna species, yellowfin is considered the most sustainable!

Do NOT support the sale of Bluefin Tuna! It is an endangered species and only prized because of its rarity!

Yellowfin Tuna's rich color, and firm texture make it a beautifully delicious fillet!

What is sashimi-grade?

It simply means that it is safe to consume this fillet raw. Like sashimi or poke!

This high quality fillet is completely safe to enjoy without cooking.

Can I get it fresh, not frozen?

Yes! If you are willing to wait.

Most Nordic Selections products are available to us fresh, but we do not source them on a weekly basis like our Nordic Catch seafood.

So we must freeze most of it between order cycles.
