Marinated Sockeye Salmon with Crispy Shallots and Capers

Marinated Sockeye Salmon with Crispy Shallots and Capers by Chef Therese Gorsich

Food is an important component in leisure travel and regional foods bring a destination to life and create delicious travel memories that stay with guests for decades.

That’s why we place a high priority on the meals served aboard the Northern Song. Our fully equipped state-of-the-art kitchen with its open floor plan is the stage upon which our highly trained Chef crafts extraordinary meals using the highest quality local wild Alaska seafood, fresh vegetables, foraged wild berries, and so much more.

Whether Chef is filleting salmon, rolling pastry, kneading bread, or simmering a sauce, our guests relish the process and often ask for recipes and tips on bringing Alaska’s flavors home with them. Below our some of our favorites!
