      How do you find out if it is farmed or wild caught and where do you buy fish that is wild caught, would like to get Salmon to see the taste difference.
      Tried fish shops but Salmon is pink, think wild caught are more white greyish looking

      • LazyLaz on 17/10/2022 - 17:39
        +11

        They're different species. The white/greyish is Australian Salmon, easily caught at the beach/rocks (just ask any fisherman!)
        The pink one is Atlantic Salmon which is farmed in Tasmania and is non-native.

      • competitions on 17/10/2022 - 17:48

        Farmed salmon are pink because they feed it a special colouring agent.

          just to add, wild caught salmon are pink because of their natural diet

          • Hasbulla on 17/10/2022 - 19:31

            @TEER3X: natural diet? please define.

              @Hasbulla: It comes from a certain crustacean they eat. Farmed salmon is toxic sh*t.

              • Hasbulla on 18/10/2022 - 10:27

                @thurston4pm: Not quite applicable, I'd say.
                Unfortunately, the natural pink flesh one you're describing is not available in Australia.
                Imports of fresh and frozen salmon have been effectively banned in Australia under the Quarantine Act since 1975.

                  @Hasbulla: You asked for an explanation on how wild salmon get their pink coloured flesh through natural diet…. It comes from a compound that is in a certain crustacean they eat. Thats the answer.

        You can get wild Alaskan red sockeye in coles and wild barramundi from the fridge sections.

        • freddofrog42 on 17/10/2022 - 19:02

          Costco too, frozen which is how I prefer to buy fish unless it's guaranteed fresh.

          A very different taste to Atlantic Salmon. It's not cheap, about $48/kg but so good.

          Hadn't noticed that Coles stocked it and having just checked online it came up as "temporarily unavailable". Not a problem, going to Costco tomorrow!

        The Salmon at supermarkets is NOT native to Australia. If you want to try wild caught Salmon check the tinned stuff to see if it is wild caught.

        OZ Salmon is not very good for eating and most fishermen throw it back or feed it to the dogs or keep it for bait.

      • derrida derider on 17/10/2022 - 18:52

        Of course given the overfishing of edible species worldwide, farm bred is pretty clearly LESS damaging to the environment than wild caught. Generally fresher too, for logistic reasons.

          I'd argue that there is no "best" way to cook these. There are just different ways. Barramundis are super tasty fish. So you can't go too wrong with these.

          Here's a channel that I have subscribed to which I find really good. So many recipes that are interesting to watch. I wish I could understand Cantonese/Mandarin (whatever he's speaking) so I didn't have to read the subtitles and miss bits of the video. Anyway ,enjoy!

            @Mr Frodo: Canto. The subtitles are on point, I don't think he misses anything his dad says. The only thing that bothers me lol is when his dad says something is good and he translates it as beautiful in English.

        • Radiolaurie on 17/10/2022 - 22:08

          Correct you can steam and or you can bung it in the oven for 30 minutes.
          Best recipe to top it off is adding the ginger raw sliced and peeled by adding it to the cooked fish.
          Then adding oil, sugar, shallot and soy on low heat untilit bubbles then its ready to pour over the cooked whole barramundi.

    • wosdam on 17/10/2022 - 18:11

      Wild caught netted Barra don't taste good because they've had a long and traumatic death. I sometimes spear Barra and within seconds of the shot they're necked so bled out and dead quickly. Taste sooo much better that way. Blood is gone. Adrenaline is hardly there.

    • LurvinOZB on 17/10/2022 - 21:02

      The whole barras around my Woolies/ Coles always look mangled and almost junk quality. Costco ones look alot more palatable.

    • [Deactivated] on 18/10/2022 - 22:37

      I heard the opposite from a fisherman… he said wild Barra tastes like dirt so you have to get farmed so they haven't been swimming in mud to avoid the dirt taste!?

    Tegel Burgers air fried would be the closest tasting to KFC, i personally hate frozen chicken too however i cant fault these burgers. 5 a pack. $1.40 each break them out whenever you want! cant go wrong! even the brioche buns from aldi 4 pack for 2-3 dollars its a great feed for cheap on the fly.

    I did a click and collect order last night, for an order, 19 items.
    13 of these were unavailable…like, seriously? That's just ridiculous.

    The other week, I went for a pick up of my click and collect order, and said, where's the rest of it, a couple tins of John West flavoured tuna and some microwave popcorn. The rest? Out of stock……

      Frankly for the amount you get, i definitely wouldnt want to pay full price, i think a fair price is this 50% off price otherwise i may as well buy fast food fried chicken and get someone else to cook it for me and will end up being similar price to what i get in the packet if i pay full price.

        Chicken burgers are minimum $10 for a decent one at shops .
