In New Zealand, super-sized salmon that can be eaten by even 100 people is raised.
New Zealand Television (TVNZ) said on the 27th that a super-large variety called'Tai' is being farmed at the New Zealand King Salmon farm in the South Island of New Zealand, and this salmon grows up to 60kg.
The broadcast introduced that Taii was a salmon found in North American mythology, and many people have been looking for it, but it was only recently discovered by chance in Tasman, New Zealand.
All of these salmon farmed at King Salmon Farm are sold at high prices by pre-order to customers abroad.
"Giant salmon have been here all the time," said Grant Rosewan, CEO of KingSaman.
Nicknamed'wagyu of the sea', he said, the salmon is sought after by top chefs around the world, but rarely caught or caught.The main reason is that it is indistinguishable from ordinary salmon as a child.
"If it grows to a satisfactory size, it is harvested and shipped to the cook, with the chef's name tag ordered one by one.
This is why there are seldom opportunities to grow up to super large.
He says the only place in the world to buy this salmon is New Zealand King Salmon Farm, but he says it's not an easy task because it's mostly sold in advance a few years ago.
He said what the Americans recently bought sold for $1,700 (about 1.4 million won).
