Light, Rich, Flakey
Orange Roughy has a brilliant flake that is rivaled only by the highest quality in Snappers, Groupers, Sea Bass and Sea Bream. It has a luxurious moisture content that comes from an incredibly deep habitat. Found nearly 4000 feet below the ocean's surface, the Orange Roughy is a cold water dweller that packs on the fat for survival. This translates to enormous succulence. Its fillet shape is reminiscent of Tai Snapper and other Sea Breams. It has a mild and sweet flavor that accepts a multitude of light herb and spice combinations, and graciously plays off of vinaigrettes and butter sauces. It sears well and is applicable in almost every cooking method.
Rich, Clean, Crunchy, Smooth
The fish have been feeding on the schools of rich Anchovies and Sardines in the coastal upwelling, so they’re healthy and have more nutritious oils. Rich yet clean Albacore is perfect for Sushi to Wood Grilled. Albacore is a great substitute for higher priced Yellowfin & Big Eye. Albacore boasts a Lean, Crunchy texture with a Moderate Flavor.
