“The salmon is a symbol of prosperity and determination to the Coast Salish tribes, the band of tribes in the Pacific Northwest of which the Jamestown S'Klallam Tribe is a part. She defies nature, swimming upstream to provide for the people of the land. Yet she must sacrifice herself to give that abundance to others. Her determination comes at a deep personal cost.”

“This is the skin and fat of the salmon's stomach!"
"The skin is crisp, and when you bite on it the sweet fat comes seeping out..."
"A long time ago, there was a lord of a large clan in the Hokuriku area who just loved to eat salmon.
That lord especially liked to eat salmon skin, but salmon skin is very thin. Even if you had all the skin of a salmon, it still didn't satisfy him.
So one day he said, if there was a salmon with a skin that was one foot thick, he'd be willing to exchange it with ten square miles of land...
That is how good the skin of a salmon is. And the meat of a salmon with a lot of fat in it is exceptionally good too. This dish has grilled just those two best parts of it.
First, you cut off the dark meat from the belly meat. Then you sprinkle salt onto the skin and the meat and refrigerate for two to three hours. After that, you grill it over charcoal.
Being careful not to tear the skin, you roll the skin around the belly meat and pin it with a toothpick; this one is the salted one.
On the other hand, this one hasn't been salted; instead, it's been marinated in soy sauce and sake overnight."
"Hmm... he used the best part of a salmon and grilled it with salt or with teriyaki sauce."
"You can't really call this a proper dish at first glance, but its flavor is definitely supreme!”
