So, what is arctic char?
Arctic char is a cold-water fish species that belongs to the Salmonidae family, along with salmon and trout. It's a slow-growing fish that inhabits the Arctic and subarctic regions, including Canada, Alaska, Iceland, and Norway. Arctic char has a mild, delicate flavor that is similar to trout but richer and more savory. Its flesh is firm and has a pink-orange hue that turns white when cooked. Arctic char is also a good source of omega-3 fatty acids, protein, and essential vitamins and minerals. This versatile fish can be enjoyed baked, grilled, smoked, or even raw in sushi or sashimi preparations.
