Pack details

  • One whole salmon head per pack — sold each
  • Gills removed where required — check and remove before stock if any remain
  • Heavy in collagen and flavour — the most overlooked cut on the fish

How to use

  • Fish stock: split, rinse, simmer with onion, celery, fennel, parsley stalks and white wine for 30 minutes — the gold standard fumet
  • Asian fish-head curry: roast the head, then simmer in a tamarind-coconut gravy
  • Grill the collar (kama): salt the collar piece, grill 4–5 minutes a side until charred — the chef’s favourite Japanese izakaya cut
  • Pick the cheeks: small, sweet morsels of meat — perfect on toast

Sourcing and delivery
