Wild Edibles Newsletter

Good Morning chefs and buyers,

The star of the day is undoubtedly our fantastic Jumbo Black Sea Bass. Locally caught off the Montauk coastline, these fish weigh between 2 and 4lbs each. The fish are so fresh that most are still in rigor even as I write this email. The blue sheen evident on the scales of each fish is a sure sign that these were in the water a matter of hours ago. We recommend you take advantage of these Black Sea Bass while you can.




Today we also have beautiful east coast Halibut from Nova Scotia. Halibut is distinguished by its flat shape and strange appearance due to the appearance of its eyes.




Another Florida item that was missing practically all of last week is in house today. Beautiful golden Tilefish from the Carolinas is available. These fish are usually found in sandy areas, especially around coral reefs. Generally shallow-water fish found at depths of 50-200 meters in both temperate and tropical waters. It is a mild tasting white fish that mostly feed on shrimp and crab which give it its sweet flavor.




Florida seems to be the popular region to start the week so far. Red Grouper, a member of the sea bass family is found in warm tropical temperatures worldwide. These fish are primarily accessible by hook and line.
