Red Porgy have the same great qualities as Tai Snapper, Red Snapper, and Dorade Royale. They are an undersung species that typically only get recognition from the Pacific variety. The Japanese have held the Porgy in high reguards for centuries. This is one of the most celebrated species in the Pacific, and the Atlantic holds an abundance. We bring them in directly from hook and line day boats and are available next day to your restaurant. Red Porgy have a wealth of culinary possibilities. Menu and prepare Red Porgy as you would any Sea Bream or Snapper.

Fish caught during the winter months seem to have a higher fat content than those caught in the summer, and Opakapaka yields the best sashimi during the winter season. The smaller-sized fish harvested off the main Hawaiian Islands are directed toward the ethnic restaurant and household retail markets in Hawaii, where opakapaka is often prepared by steaming or baking fish with the head on. In these markets, opakapaka is also used to make sashimi and fish head soup.

Kampachi are a dusky color with light amber/olive stripes down their sides. Their upper bodies and lower fins tend to be a dark blue-green to brown, with a much lighter underbelly that can appear almost lavender. Average size is around 6lb. Whole fish are perfect for roasting, poaching or steaming. Fillets are excellent raw (sashimi, crudo, ceviche) or a good choice for grilling, pan searing or steaming.
