Hailing from Alaska, king salmon strips is a fish delicacy that is typically made with a species of wild-caught Alaskan salmon, known locally as king salmon. The preparation of this dish was a traditional way of preserving the fish that has long been practiced within the coastal communities in the country.
The fish is skinned, gutted, and deboned, then sliced into long strips before it is brined. Traditional brining uses only salt, such as sea salt or rock salt, but these days, other ingredients are also often added to the brine, including brown sugar, maple syrup, molasses, or soy sauce.

The salmon is rubbed with salt, then combined with diced tomatoes, minced red onion, and green onions.
The word lomi means to press, massage, or rub, referring to the method of massaging the salted salmon between the fingers. Lomi-lomi salmon is traditionally served as an appetizer or a side dish at Hawaiian parties (luaus), usually alongside kalua pig, poke, and poi.
