Can't find a good salmon sashimi platter near you? You can buy sashimi-grade salmon online and make it at home. A growing number of online seafood suppliers ship flash-frozen, sashimi-grade salmon overnight in insulated packaging, so you get restaurant-quality salmon anywhere in the US.

When buying salmon sashimi-grade online, check three things: (1) the seller explicitly labels the fish "sashimi-grade" or "sushi-grade" and states it was frozen to FDA parasite-destruction guidelines, (2) overnight or 2-day shipping with gel packs so the fish stays cold, and (3) clear sourcing and a catch or harvest date. Compare price per pound, minimum order size, and shipping cost — buying salmon online is usually cheaper per serving than a restaurant salmon sashimi platter once you split a larger order.
