Exceptional nutritional value
Pink salmon (gorbusha), the smallest Pacific salmon, values for the raw fish.
Pink salmon (gorbusha) is the most common wild Pacific salmon, sold fresh, frozen and canned and cooked like other salmon. A 150 g raw portion gives about 190 kcal and 31 g of protein with under 7 g of fat, including about 0.8 g of the omega-3 fats EPA and DHA, and is very high in vitamin B12, vitamin D, niacin and selenium. It is leaner than farmed Atlantic salmon, so it dries out quickly when overcooked.
