Moist, Halibut-like
Escolar has a very white flesh and is sometimes consumed raw as sushi or sashimi. Filleted and cut into thick steaks, escolar can be cooked in numerous ways: pan-fried, braised or grilled. The flavor of its moist white flesh is a bit like that of halibut. It lends itself well to both traditional and exotic recipes. Grilling will tend to reduce the heavy fat content whereas battering will not.
Clean, Firm, Moderate
From whole fish, to wagon wheels, to steak ready loins, this cylindrical body has a great yield. Cutting waste, cutting butcher time, cutting cost. With the firm texture of the flesh, and abundant flavor, Broadbill Swordfish is phenomenal for grilling, light smoking, and broiling. It also caramelizes nicely in a searing application. It holds up fearlessly against powerful “sets” and spices.
Buttery, Silky, Rich
Tasmanian Atlantic Salmon possess a very rich fat content. Tasmania Salmon present beautifully and are leagues above commodity aquaculture facilities. Tasmanian Atlantic Salmon will behave similar to higher end wild Salmons in the marketplace, with color, flavor, and silkiness. The Tasmanian Atlantic Salmon have a naturally derived color and sugar content that caramelizes phenomenally with a brilliant center of the plate presentation. Prepare Tasmanian Atlantic Salmon with the same care and application as wild Alaskan species. The results are astounding, and the availability is much more consistent.
