Range & Habitat
Rich, Creamy, Light, Flakey
It is found from tide pools to 600 feet deep in the water column, in and around rocky structures, hard bottoms, and occasionally over mud and sand bottoms. The California Scorpionfish is normally between 7 and 14 inches in length, reaching a maximum of 17 inches. It resides on the bottom during daylight hours but becomes a voracious predator during the night, feeding on small crabs, small fish, octopi, and shrimp. With deep water habitats and a varied diet, The Sculpin boasts a creamy and light complexity that is sure to please the pickiest fish eater. Save those BONES. California Sculpin makes one flavorful Fume.
Light, Sweet, Flakey
The Flame Snapper inhabit the rocky deep off the coast of Australia. They are known to live up to 1300 feet below the surface. The cold depths of their range produce a clean and moist protein that rivals any Snapper in their sweet and rich profile. Typically a larger Snapper, the Flame Snapper produces a very versatile fillet. The thickness allows perfect portioning and a remarkable plate presentation. The Flame Snapper also provides a beautiful deep pink to red skin that crisps wonderfully. The skeleton offers a clean yet rich ingredient for stocks, consommes, and fumets.
Tender, Sweet
Stone Claws are traditionally served chilled, cracked and exposed. The Meat of the Stone Claw is very tender and one of the sweetest in the sea. They also boast a beautiful "Ocean" flavor that compliments their sweetness.
