(1082)

Tuna Harbor Dockside Market’s open-air seafood market aims to be the pride of the Port of San Diego. Focused on San Diego’s historic commercial fishing and aquaculture industries, local customers – both the public and chefs, will delight in purchasing fresh caught seafood and aquafarmed seaweed direct from their local fishermen and aquafarmers. With sustainable sourcing, minimal carbon footprints,

and “supporting local” on the minds of San Diego’s health and environmentally-conscious community, Tuna Harbor Dockside Market stands to benefit all. The opportunity is now here for the customer to get closer to their food sources, gain an understanding and appreciation of the industries, and for young people to become inspired to consider careers in commercial fishing and aquaculture; and for the fishermen and aquafarmers to engage in direct-to-consumer sales and have the chance for an open dialog about what they sell and their methods used for catch and harvest.

Ikejime (eek-eh-gee-meh) is a traditional Japanese style of dispatching a fish, which preserves the maximum freshness and taste of seafood. Effectively, the way that a fish is dispatched reduces the amount of stress on the fish.

Ikejime makes a lot of difference in taste of seafood and is most noticeable when the fish is consumed raw (e.g., sushi, ceviche).
Commercial fishermen land many species that are suited for such consumption including tunas, yellowtail, halibut, and various groundfish.

Shane’s Seafoods says, “I chose to do ikejime on my fish because it is the most humane way to dispatch a fish, and can have an extended shelf life when this technique is applied.”
