Dissostichus eleginoides Chilean Sea Bass Also known as:Patagonian Toothfish, Antarctic
Cod, Mero, Bacalao de Profundidad
Product Overview Big, moist tender flakes of flavor
are the trademarks of Chilean Sea Bass. Superb when grilled
or
boiled, the rich taste and firm texture of this deep-water
fish has made it an international favorite. The high
content
of omega 3 fatty acids makes this an ideal food for the prevention
of heart disease. Meat from the raw Chilean Sea Bass is
snow
white. When cooked, the meat remains white, comparable to
cod in appearance. The average weight of a commercially
caught
Sea Bass is 20 pounds, though fully-grown adults can reach
250 pounds. It is a slow growing and long-lived fish,
which
reaches maturity between 10 to 12 years and can, live up
to 50 years. Despite its market name, Chilean Sea Bass
is not
related to either true Sea Basses or to other saltwater basses.
It is a member of the Nototheniidae family.
The catch is delivered gutted to our plant where it is then headed and washed
and immersed in a brine solution that has been mechanically chilled to 32º F/
0º C to maintain moisture and freshness.
Be sure to contact us to discuss your special pack and processing needs.
