Moist, Halibut-like
Escolar has a very white flesh and is sometimes consumed raw as sushi or sashimi. Filleted and cut into thick steaks, escolar can be cooked in numerous ways: pan-fried, braised or grilled. The flavor of its moist white flesh is a bit like that of halibut. It lends itself well to both traditional and exotic recipes. Grilling will tend to reduce the heavy fat content whereas battering will not.
Mild, Rich, Creamy
Like many Rockfish, The Red Rock Cod has a phenomenal moisture that translates to a rich and succulent texture. The raw light pink flesh cooks to a brilliant paper white. The Rock Cod has a blank slate canvas that accepts many applications. The light flavor is a vehicle for fresh Spring and Summer herbs, fruits and vegetables. Light Butter Sauces, Vinaigrettes, Gastriques and Purees are perfect for this Hand Line delicacy. Saute, Broil, Ceviche, Sous Vide.
Flaky, Moist
The Common Name Dungeness comes from the town of Dungeness, Washington where the Crab was first commercially harvested. The Dungeness can be utilized from Whole "Crab Crackings" over beers, or served in the most upscale venues paired with Champagne. The applications are endless and a money maker in their own rite.
