Rich, Buttery
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.
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.
Nutty, Earthy, Lean, Moderate
Plank Cut Lean Firm Fish. Some say it has the flavor of Walnuts and Poultry. Great yields (near 100%) on the loin. Pink to orange hues give it a beautiful Sashimi display quality. Hebi is a unique flavor that sets it apart from all others.
