Mild, Sweet, Creamy
Live catch methods produce a very firm flesh when fresh and a beautiful cooked product. "Fat" levels of the Black Cod ensure delicate, moist, and mild dishes. The firmness is that of Halibut with a gorgeous flake. The Black Cod lends itself to multitude of cooking applications and is a great "sponge" for marinades and brines. Poach, Steam, Saute, Pan Roast.
Subtle, Complex Flavor
They have a great crunch with a buttery finish. They will require "Love" in preparation. A light poach before grilling, roasting, or steaming will ensure flakiness and a buttery finish. These are the perfect species for Ceviche, as they have less oils than a Northern species. The higher oils can cloud the liquids. Poach, Grill, Steam, Ceviche.
Succulent, Sweet, Tender
Due to their preference for more brackish, low salinity waters, White Shrimp are sweet and tender -- the preferred choice of shrimp boat captains and local coastal residents.
