Trails to Tsukiji - Season 4 Episode 4 Salmon
Salmon is Japan's most-consumed fish. During the season in autumn, one day of salmon trade at Tsukiji can exceed 1 million dollars! In Japan, salmon is commonly eaten salted and served on rice. We visit Hokkaido, where 80% of Japan's wild salmon is caught, to learn more about the fish, go out to sea with a professional fisherman, and visit a factory where Japan's top-quality salmon roe is prepared.
