About this item

A round, flat-bodied fish with bright silver skin and fins that shade from gold to amber at the tips. The flesh is fine-grained and gently sweet, holding its shape well enough to steam whole with ginger and spring onion, or to pan-sear until the skin crisps. Small enough to plate as one generous portion per person, it is among the most forgiving fish a home cook can work with.
