Wild Edibles Newsletter 5-17-2013

Good Morning chefs and Buyers,



Today we have razor clams in the house. The Atlantic razor clam also known as the bamboo clam or the American Jackknife clam is a large species of edible marine bivalve mollusk, found on the North Atlantic coast, from Canada to South Carolina as well as in Europe.



In the warehouse today we have blackfish from Long Island. Blackfish also known as Tautog is found from Nova Scotia to South Carolina. They prefer structured habitat and are frequently found near piers. Blackfish has a relatively firm white meat, which makes it ideal for a variety of preparation methods including fish stews and chowders.


Wild Striped Bass season is in full swing right now in Virginia. This fish has a very clean and mild flavor with meat that has a firm texture. The price will keep coming down once more states are open and the warm weather is here to stay.





Also in the house is Pike from The Great Lakes. This fish is a voracious predator which consumes three to four times its weight during the course of the year. Their diet includes crayfish, frogs, small mammals, birds and anything within its reach.




Please keep in mind this weekend we will not have any Grouper or Uni in the warehouse. Have a great weekend!
