Tough decision but you could make more variety with Halibut.
I was born in Olympia Washington and have eaten Salmon every way imaginable and I love it but halibut milder flavor makes it better for making almost anything.
Halibut is my choice.
Yellow perch is one of the best tasting fish I’ve eaten though.
It’s slightly sweet almost like crab. Amazing!!

As an Alaskan guide, I had unlimited access to both. If you don't like fish, go for the halibut, as it is nearly tasteless. Halibut is great in stew as it holds is shape and texture. It also picks up the flavor of what is in the stew such as shrimp or crab. When cooked alone it has a very small margin between done and dry. It must be removed from the heat before it is done as it will cook between the pan and the mouth. King salmon is awesome if not overcooked. Like halibut, it must be removed from the heat before completely done. Over cooked salmon and halibut are both ruined if overcooked. My personal choice from the same water as halibut and Kings would be any of the rockfish species (not East Coast rock fish/stripers)and or ling cod.

Very well put. Most people will overcook fish of any kind. Kings or "nooks" as we call them are the best for flavor richness and oil content. I would take most all rockfish (Pacific) over halibut any day. Some people think nooks are to fishey but each to their own. Ill eat any slamon that comes to me!

For sable marinade, I boil ¼ cup each sake and mirin for 20 secs, then low heat add ¼ cup miso paste & whisk til its dissolved. Turn heat back up to high and whisk in ¼ cup brown sugar til dissolved, stirring constantly. Let cool completely, add to filets or pieces in a ziploc and marinate 2-3 days. Grill or pan-sear meat-side down 3 mins, flip and sear skin side 2-3 mins, then finish for 5-10 mins in 400° oven or indirect heat on grill til it flakes. It's like candy.


How much sake should I drink?

Depends on how big a bottle you bought! Whatever's leftover after you use ¼ cup for the marinade! 😁

Between halibut and king salmon, my vote is halibut. Less fishy tasting and milder compared to salmon b/c it's not as oily and also takes on the flavors of however you season or cook it. But my overall favorite is opah. Similar in taste and texture to halibut, it's richer and creamier than halibut but similarly mild tasting and takes on the flavors of your preparation and cooking method. If I could only eat one fish for the rest of my life, I would soon tire of a fish with a distinctive flavor. So it should be one that can take on a variety of tastes so the experience isn't so boring.
