About Australian Salmon
Habitat - Saltwater, occasionally estuarine
Pungently flavoured, coarse, and slightly oily
flesh makes Australian salmon less desirable as a food fish; it is often sold
canned or is smoked to improve its flavour, and bleeding the fish out is also
said to help. What is not sold for human consumption is used as bait for rock
lobster traps and other commercial and recreational fishing.
Must be bled and chilled rapidly on capture to
prevent flesh spoilage. Large fish can be dry (often due to poor handling), and
small fish are generally of a higher eating quality. Try marinating large fish
or serve with a sauce. Smoked products are being developed.
A similar but smaller species, Australian
herring, caught off southern Western Australia and South Australia, is sold
whole or as fillets (fresh, frozen or smoked).
Australian salmons are very popular targets of recreational anglers

US Food & Drug Administration:
US FDA - EU SEAFOOD PROCESSOR EXPORT
CERTIFICATE LISTS
In the past the EU has accepted and used the FDA list of approved seafood
establishments for acceptance of U.S. seafood shipments. However, due to a
change in EU legislation, the EU began maintaining their own Official List of
approved establishments. This has resulted in two separate (and different)
lists:
