Halibut

Halibut is a large flatfish belonging to the family Pleuronectidae, found in the cold waters of the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans. It is among the largest flatfish species, adults can weigh over 200 kg. The flesh is white, firm, and mild in flavour with a low fat content, making it a favourite in both professional and home kitchens. Halibut can be prepared in many ways, grilled, baked, pan-fried, or poached. It pairs well with fresh sauces, citrus dressings, and herbs. Thanks to its firm texture, the fillets hold together well during cooking, making them easy to handle.
