Baja Bays are some of the rare fresh bay Scallops found in our domestic market place. In general, the only fresh Bay Scallop produced in the States is the Nantucket Bay Scallop available in small numbers from November through March. The “Sea of Cortez” Bay scallop is again a “Hand Harvested” product, landed by Divers in shallow waters off the coast of Baja. The shucked abductor muscle grades between 60-80 counts per pound. Ceviche, Gratin, Crudo, Saute.

Popular and universally known by the public, the Mahi is a rock star. Well, it's a star, but Hawaii ROCKS it. You will find a deeper color in Hawaiian and South Pacific Mahi. Deeper colder waters typically pack the fat into these fish, yielding a rich, moist, flakey fillet. Mahi have great yields and are easily broken down from whole. Make a butchers day and get a "Bull" on his board.

Meagre Susuki is a larger fish in aquaculture with an average market weight around 6 lbs. It has a bright translucent flesh that can be enjoyed raw, or slightly cooked. If a clean bright flavor with a tremendous mouth feel is tricky to procure for your crudo, then Meagre Suzuki is available to fill the niche. Medium is probably as far as you would want to take this species to preserve the delicate flake and moisture. However, Meagre Suzuki lends itself to an abundance of methods and techniques, and stands to flavors that represent its wild distribution. Light Mediterranean, Japanese, Pacific Rim, and a host of other global flare is easily incorporated into a Meagre Suzuki presentation.
