Premium Frozen Pacific Saury (Sanma) | 3# Grade (75-90g) | Export Quality
Elevate your seafood offerings with our 3# Grade Pacific Saury. Harvested from the cold, nutrient-rich waters of the North Pacific (FAO 61), our Sanma is prized for its slender shape, shimmering silver skin, and rich, savory meat.
The 3# grading (75-90g per piece) is widely considered the "Golden Size" for professional kitchens and retail packaging, offering a meatier profile and higher oil content than smaller grades.
Key Product Highlights

Why Choose Our 3# Pacific Saury?
1. The Chef's Choice for Grilling
The 75-90g weight range is the preferred choice for Japanese Izakayas and BBQ restaurants. This size ensures the fish remains moist under high heat, allowing the skin to crisp perfectly while the interior stays succulent.
2. High Meat-to-Bone Ratio
Compared to smaller sizes, the 3# grade offers a more satisfying dining experience with more accessible meat, making it a favorite for frozen retail packs and meal-kit providers.
3. Sustainable & Traceable
We are committed to responsible fishing practices. Our Pacific Saury is traceable from the vessel to your warehouse, ensuring compliance with international food safety and sustainability standards.
Culinary Applications
- Salt-Grilling (Shioyaki): The most popular method to highlight the fish's natural umami.
- Braising & Simmering: Holds its shape well in soy-based or spicy ginger sauces.
- Premium Canning: Used for high-end canned seafood products that require whole, uniform fillets.
