Frozen Whole Sole Fish

A flatfish sold whole and cleaned, with a silky, fine-grained white fillet on either side of a single central bone. The flavour is delicate and slightly sweet, and the flesh stays soft under heat instead of drying out.

Origin & Sourcing

Caught in coastal shelf waters and flash-frozen on landing. The whole fish is cleaned and gutted before freezing, so only a quick rinse is needed at home.
