Often mistaken for California "Southern" Halibuts, the Cortez Fluke is a delicacy all its own. Fluke are "Left-Eyed" Flat Fish. They harbor all of the sweet lightness of many Fluke, Flounders and Halibut. The overwhelming differences in Cortez Fluke has to the harvest method and care given to the fish upon capture. Most flat fish are trawl netted and captured alongside hundreds of other fish. The Cortez Fluke is One Man, One Line, and One At A Time. Treat as any crudo grade flat fish.

It also caramelizes nicely in a searing application. It holds up fearlessly against powerful “sets” and spices.
