I am pleased to announce the addition of a new line from Kanimi. This brand line features Smart Salmon and Crab Smart, two all natural seafood lines.

Smart Salmon is a frozen 6 oz salmon portion that is marinated in three flavors - Hawaiian Huli-Huli Sauce, Ginger Sauce and Kenyan Coffee BBQ Sauce. My favorite is the Kenyan Coffee BBQ Sauce.Smart Salmon features wild Alaskan Sockeye salmon that is caught, processed and frozen in Alaska and then shipped to Seattle where it is portioned, marinated and packaged. Wild Alaskan Sockeye is a certified sustainable fishery by the Marine Stewardship Council. Each entree contains 1500 mg of Omega-3 fatty acids which contribute to heart health, brain function and acts as an anti-inflammatory agent. Vitamin D, the antioxidant astaxanthin and selenium are also found in each entree making them a heart healthy, tasty meal.

Preparing these items couldn't be any easier. Thaw overnight in the refrigerator, and microwave for 3 minutes at 50% power. Smart Salmon comes in a special "steam pouch" that makes preparation and cleanup a breeze. No more overcooked, dry salmon these entrees come out moist and tasty each and every time. After placing the salmon on the plate you toss the "steam pouch" in the garbage and clean up is done. The salmon have had the pin bones removed so you don't need to worry about bones in your salmon ever. This method of cooking also eliminates the fishy smell that can overwhelm a kitchen.

Crab Smart Natural is the fastest growing surimi seafood product on the market. Kanimi has removed all the phosphates and sorbitol, artificial flavors and artificial colors from this line of items and replaced all the artificial ingredients with those derived from natural sources, including the red coloring which comes from tomato-based anti-oxidant lycopene. They have increased the amount of Omega 3 fish oil to 350mg for Shrimp Smart and 400 mg for Crab Smart and Lobster Smart - up to 4 times that of the other leading brands. Crab Smart is made from Alaskan Pollock, a wild-caught sustainable species to which real snow crab is added. Crab Smart is available in flake, chunk and stick style. In addition to Crab, Kanimi also has Lobster Smart Natural and Shrimp Smart Natural, which has chemical free cold water shrimp added for flavor and texture. Crab Smart Natural is the wave of the future of surimi seafood.

Surimi is a very versatile item that can be used a salad topping, eaten on a cracker as an appetizer, used as a filling for sandwiches, wraps or burritos. Surimi can also be used for stuffing's for fish, mushroom caps or tomatoes. The Crab Sticks make for a great high protein snack that can be eaten on the go.

The real point of difference of all these items though is the simple fact they taste great!
