Wild Edibles Newsletter 8-19-2013

Good Morning chefs and buyers,

In the warehouse today is Cobia which is a great underutilized fish that lends well to summer preparations. We look forward to our shipment of Cobia arriving tonight in time for tomorrow morning's deliveries. They will weigh approximately 8-10lbs each, coming in from Panama.

Red Grouper from Florida has been pretty consistent the last couple of weeks. A member of the Sea Bass family is found in warm tropical temperatures worldwide. These fish are primarily accessible by hook and line.

Sea Trout or as some call it Weakfish is in the warehouse today. This fish is actually part of the Drum family not the Trout family as some suppose because the name it bears. When they are young they prey on shrimp and other crustaceans. As they get older they switch over to fish the bigger the better.

Once again we have Locally caught John Dory in the warehouse. This fish gets its prey by stalking other fish. It usually eats cuttlefish, squid, sardines and schooling fish. Its firm textured white flesh is moist and flaky with a low fat content.




Please be aware that Wild Striped Bass is in high demand at the moment. Prices have gone up on it because New York State is the only state open at the moment. Any questions on this matter don’t hesitate to contact your sales rep.

You are never too old to set another goal or to dream a new dream.
