A reasonable resemblance to the fillet shape of Sea Bream and Snapper, however, the Rockfish surpasses those species in "Fat". The Rockfish is a deep water species that packs on "fat" to regulate body temperature. This translates to an incredible silkiness and succulence. The Paper White Cooked flesh is mild and slightly firm with incredible flake. The Rockfish is clean and opaque raw and is a formidable Sashimi and Sushi choice. With all of the creaminess of Tai and Madai, the Rockfish holds up to the most educated palates. Sashimi, Ceviche, Saute, Broil.
