    Smoked Octopus Takoyaki

    These octopus balls hail from the Japanese city of Osaka where they are the iconic street food. Normally made with boiled octopus chunks, we swapped in our Smoked Octopus and absolutely loved the results.
  • Fisherman's Stew (Smoked Cioppino)

    Fisherman's Stew (Smoked Cioppino)

    This recipe for Fisherman's Stew will net many smiles. Fisherman's Stew (also called cioppino) is a rustic seafood stew with origins in the Liguria region of Italy, and variations of cioppino are sometimes called brodetto or brudet in historically Italian regions of coastal Croatia. It is a traditional fisherman’s stew made from the catch of the day, generally with smaller species of net fish that don’t command as much money at market. Through the magic of canning, it does not rely on having an Italian fisherman in the family. It’s best to prepare this easy, lusty fish stew in a large, wide saucepan.

    Octopus salad is a Mediterranean classic with many variations, but most of them include some variation of the basic ingredients we’ve included. Nothing makes us think of the Adriatic Sea like a good octopus salad, with plenty of lemon juice to stimulate the appetite for further eating. Good olive oil insulates against the effects of wine.

    Octopus may not be your first impulse when you stock up on canned seafood, but this smoked octopus recipe will change that.  Bering Sea octopus is the best of what you probably love about octopus: clean, lean, mildly briny sea protein with just the right amount of bounce in the bite. Wildfish Cannery Smoked Octopus not only takes the time and guesswork out of cooking octopus, but also imparts the clean aroma of Alaskan Alder wood smoke to any accompanying ingredients.
