Good Morning Chefs and Buyers!
We are unfortunately still going without Tuna #2. Our buyers have been on the lookout for great Tuna and after Tuna #1 and #2+ there is a significant drop off in quality.
However…. there are some great offerings that we have available starting with stellar Swordfish brought in by one of our buyers. Swordfish is great to work with because the meat is firm and it has a tasty buttery flavor to it. As you can see above the flesh is almost opaque white and it looks nice, oily, and tender. We know our quality and it really shows here in this photo.
We also have more beautiful fish from the market. On the left is Head On Mahi Mahi. These come from the Pacific off the shores of Guatemala. We don’t see them often with the heads on and it is a beautiful fish with excellent color! In the middle is the Escolar, whose flesh is a more buttery, oiler version of Swordfish. And to the right is a Farmed Sturgeon from Florida.

| Tatamagouche Oysters |
Tatamagouche oysters are grown in Nova Scotia.
This brackish estuary is situated across the North Cumberland Strait from Prince Edward Island. It serves as an ideal location for the development of these unbelievable oysters. The flavor of Tatamagouche is characterized by a bright, sweet start that yields to a pleasantly briny finish. The meat possesses a slightly firm texture, and is large enough to not become lost in the shells.

| Lobster Tanks |
We want to show you a little bit about what is inside our new warehouse. After Hurricane Sandy we were chased into Hunts Point early and we never get to show off some of the things that go on here at Wild Edibles. Here is a photo of our Lobster tanks. We keep our Lobsters alive in temperature controlled saltwater… THIS WAY THEY COME TO YOU FRESH AND ALIVE!!!
