Sow Hake have a close resemblance to Cod and Haddock with a larger flake and "Fluffier" texture. They inhabit extremely deep waters and rise to mid depth at night to feed. The Sow Hake are harvested during this time by Hook and Line "Jig" Day Boat Operators. Sow Hake are a delicate "softer" flesh than other New England Round Fish. They are, indeed, a highly sought species by "Local" minded New England Chefs. They contain high levels of fish "fat" to regulate body temperature. This translates to incredible moisture levels in the prepared flesh. The culinary application is vast. Think it and Hake will handle it. Poach, Saute, Broil, Grill, Salt-Cure, Smoke.

Known as “the Norwegian Miracle,” the name “Skrei” comes from old Norse word for “the wanderer.” Thought to be one of Norway’s first exports, its annual arrival enabled people to inhabit far north areas of Norway when other food wasn’t available. Today, Skrei comes from one of the world’s largest and most sustainably managed cod stocks. Only 10% of over 400 million migrating cod are caught and branded Skrei. In Norway, it’s also known as the “Valentine’s Fish” as a Skrei has prepared its whole life to make the journey to meet its mate at the spawning grounds where it’s caught. To be certified Skrei, Norwegian cod must be caught, packed and processed in accordance with Skrei's strict quality standard.

Baquetta is a great option in the Grouper realm. Flavorful and sweet with a great tooth to the cooked flesh. Deep red lines in the white to pink fillet offer a complexity of flavor without tasting bitter or "off". Baquetta can grow large and offer "baseball" cuts, or 3-5 lb fish can yield a beautiful plank.
