Sweet, Lobster-like
Sweet and a perfect mix of Lobster and Shrimp Flavors. The Meat of the Spot Prawn has a phenomenal "SNAP" and finishes very silky. The Spot Prawn inhabit deep water and pack on "fat" to regulate body temperature. This translates to a beautiful product that interacts with dry cooking methods to retain "fat" in the finished dish. Broil, Grill, Roast, Saute, Crudo, Sushi, Ceviche.
Clean, Rich, Moist, Flaky
Snook is similar to California White Bass, with a Haddock flake. Robalo contain a bit more ocean complexity in flavor. It is "Not Boring" by any means. The appeal of a paper white cooked flesh with a lean, yet moist, flake gives the Robalo a great marketability. Culinarily it can be treated as Cod, Haddock, White Bass, and Grouper.
