Fresh Catch Friday...

FRESH JUMBO SNOW CRAB CLUSTERS

‍

FRESH HALIBUT (Halibut has a mild, sweet flavor with a firm texture. Its taste is often likened to other white fish such as cod or haddock but with a slightly sweeter undertone. Compared to oily fish like salmon or mackerel, halibut has a much more delicate and subtle taste.

Thanks to its taste, halibut is easy to pair with a wide variety of seasonings and sauces (especially light sauces that don’t overwhelm the taste).

Moreover, the flesh is dense and flaky when cooked, and it retains moisture well. To preserve both its flavor and moisture, I would recommend baking or pan-searing halibut.

‍

FRESH GOLD SPOTTED SEA BASS (Gold Spotted Sand Bass have a Light, Clean Flavor with a medium flake. The fish are hand line caught about 200-500 ft. deep. Great portion yields on 1-3 lb. fish. Skin is light flavored and crisps nicely. A wonderful alternative to more expensive Snappers and Sea Bass. Sauté, Pan Roast, Poach.)

‍

FRESH SABLEFISH "BLACK COD" (Black cod, also called sablefish, has a rich, buttery flavor with a slight touch of sweetness. Unlike regular cod, its taste is more pronounced but still mild enough to please most palates. The fish carries a subtle briny note from its deep-sea habitat that enhances its overall flavor.)

‍

‍

FRESH SCOTTISH SALMON (The texture is where Scottish salmon truly shines. Due to the cold water and strong currents, these fish are naturally athletic. This results in a firm, muscular flesh that isn’t soft or mushy. The key characteristics are:

Firm Flake: When cooked, the flesh separates into large, succulent flakes.

Buttery Mouthfeel: The high content of omega-3 fatty acids creates a rich, melt-in-your-mouth sensation.

Silky Smoothness: Whether served raw as sashimi or gently cooked, the texture is consistently smooth and luxurious.

‍

‍

FRESH VIRGINIA FLOUNDER (The taste of flounder is often described as mild and sweet, with a delicate flavor that is not overpowering. This makes it an excellent choice for those who prefer a lighter taste in their seafood. The flounder’s flavor profile can be influenced by several factors, including its diet, the water it inhabits, and how it is prepared. For instance, flounders that feed on plankton and small crustaceans may have a sweeter taste than those that consume more fish and squid.
