ORIGIN: Pacific halibut are found in the North Pacific Ocean. This product is a Sustainably Sourced Wild product. 160g - 220g approx Halibut is the largest flat fish in the world. Halibut is a lean fish with mild, sweet tasting white flesh, large flakes and a firm but tender texture. Because of its leanness this fish becomes dried-out if overcooked. When halibut meat is raw, it isn't actually white but rather glossy and translucent. But cooking the flesh causes proteins in the meat to coagulate, creating that dense, snow-white colour and firm texture we see in so-called "white meat fish." A similar process occurs in all types of meats from both land and sea. This lean fish has a mild, sweet tasting white flesh, similar to tilapia. It's thicker and firmer than cod. Because the flavour is so gentle, halibut pairs well with bolder seasonings like pesto, lemon juice and basil.
