Pickford also found more New Zealand Bluefin Tuna!! Absolutely Amazing!

Coming in Fresh Thursday,

FRESH NEW ZEALAND BLUEFIN TUNA (Solander Southern Bluefin Tuna is carefully caught by long line on the East and West Coast of New Zealand. It is all wild and running free in the ocean enhancing its flavor and taste. Southern Bluefin Tuna makes beautiful sashimi and is rich in fat and melts in your mouth. The flesh of a Southern Bluefin Tuna has a wonderful red/pink color. The highly prized belly section of the fish can have a very high fat content providing a taste sensation equal to nothing else in seafood. As far as tuna goes Southern Bluefin Tuna is rated number one for sashimi.) Eat this with an Albarino

JUMBO SNOW CRAB CLUSTERS (LARGEST AND SWEETEST)

FRESH HALIBUT (When impeccably fresh the white flesh has a subtly sweet flavor with barely any fishiness. Here are some key notes on halibut’s taste profile

  • Mild, sweet
  • Lean and firm
  • Clean, delicate flavor
  • Very little fishy or oily taste
  • Medium-firm texture

Halibut has a much mellower taste than oily fish like salmon or mackerel. There is only a whisper of that savory umami flavor. Without the fattiness, halibut has a lighter mouthfeel than salmon or tuna, even when cooked. Think of it as a canvas for other ingredients rather than a stand-alone flavor.

FRESH TRIPLETAIL IS BACK (Tripletail are a highly desired fish, known for their dense white meat. The fillets are thick, but delicate and best prepared baked, sauteed, or fried with minimal seasoning. Many anglers prefer the taste and texture of tripletail over more notable fish like snapper or grouper. The flesh of tripletail fish is white and firm, developing a pleasant flakey texture when cooked.)

FRESH U-15 DRY PACK SCALLOPS

FRESH SCOTTISH SALMON (Real Scottish salmon is different from other types of salmon in a few important ways:

  • Vibrant orange color – Scottish salmon gets its distinctive bright orange hue from eating krill and shellfish that contain natural astaxanthin This antioxidant is responsible for the fish’s vibrant pigment.
  • High fat content – The cold, fast-moving waters around Scotland help produce salmon with a higher fat content and rich buttery texture than other varieties. The increased fat results in more omega-3s.
  • Mild flavor – Because of its high fat content, Scottish salmon tends to have a more delicate, subtly sweet flavor than strongly flavored wild Pacific salmon.

Salmon that live in cold water, work out by fighting currents, and eat a natural diet are healthy and full of nutrients. Their qualities make Scottish salmon a popular choice at seafood counters and restaurants.
