Cutting these up into fillets for some healthy eating throughout this week. Then I had an idea of making sushi, but this isn't salmon.
Can I make sushi with steelhead?
Would this be more viable with a spicy treatment, à la spicy salmon?
I've read some posts on this sub, if I understand correctly this will safe to consume because it's been in my freezer for more than 7 days. Plus, I got these at Costco.

Fresh caught? Id put them indeed in the freezer for 7 days and its good to go
If they’re Costco they are probably farmed. You should be good to go. Nothing wrong with steelhead sushi.

as long as they’re farmed ones from Costco it makes for great sushi and sashimi. More leaner than salmon
It’s also not steelhead. It’s just a farmed rainbow trout. A steelhead has an anadromous life cycle (lives most of its life in the salt and spawns in freshwater rivers.) Sorry I’m a diehard salmon and steelhead angler, and it bothers me they’re able to get away with calling those farmed fish “steelhead”
It is not suggested to have sushi with freshwater fish.
Diseases and parasites are much more likely to be compatible with humans
My farm raised salmon from Costco had about 30 worms coming out of it
Look at my posts, I did it once. It was pretty good but nowhere near as good as salmon.
If it’s farm raised, don’t do it. There is a chance it was raised in freshwater. Those are just big farmed rainbow trout.
So you’re planning on eating this everyday for the whole week?
