Tai has a host of species attached with the moniker. This is the Pagrus auratus from New Zealand. It is a Porgy/Sea Bream that has a beautiful pink hued skin that is wonderfully edible. The flesh is a soft light pink that cooks to paper white, and is mild, sweet, and "fluffy". Applications are limitless! Menu as Tamure, Tai, Madai, Kodai, Red Sea Bream, or Porgy and your guests will revel in its versatility. Sashimi, Saute, Broil.
Rich, Succulent, Tender, Rich
Monkfish is arguably the most unique texture in seafood. When prepared correctly Monkfish is most resemblant of Atlantic Lobster meat. Though versatile in preparation methods, most culinarians enjoy a slow application. Monk Tail "Osso Bucco" is a very recognized dish in American and European dining. Monkfish are predominantly sold "tails only". The tail is virtually the only usable part of the fish.
Super Sweet, Light, Flakey
Triggerfish feed very heavily on Blue Crab, Swimmer Crab, Urchin, Shrimp and Mollusks. This translates to a beautiful Sweeetness and muscle striation. The Striation allows for the flesh to flake into texturally phenomenal strands with a subtle tooth. Brilliant for saute with citrus or cream. Saute, Broil, Grill, Pan Roast.
