Cod, haddock, hake, whiting and pollock

Online Catalogue | Cod, haddock, hake, whiting and pollock

White fish

These are traditional British fish, the ones we always used to eat on Fridays and what fish and chips are made from. Now they are no longer the cheap staple of our diet, they have nearly become luxury fish, and you can't go wrong with them, it's now rather special and unusual to serve a delicious thick fillet of cod or haddock!



Cod fillet or loin

Cod fillet or loin

Ref: 2001

Quantity:



Fillet or loin, skin on or skinless?


Our finest cod fillet is cut by us to size. It's not like that skinny supemarket cod fillet, it's thick and delicious. Order it as skin-on or skinless fillets, or as a loin which is a thick piece of totally deboned cod that's ideal for baking, again skin on or skinless. The cod in the photograph was baked for 20 minutes at 180 degrees with a coating of breadcrumbs, dry mustard and cheddar cheese, traditionally British ingredients! Or try it with a topping of flaked almonds and small knobs of butter.

Our cod is hook and line caught off Cornwall from small boats, or if that's not available, it is farmed Norwegian cod. So our cod is SUSTAINABLE!

Cod steak or saddle

Ref: 2018

Quantity:



Cod steak or cod loin?


Cod steaks are cut across the cod, so that they are round in shape rather than long like a fillet. There's also a central bone. The steaks are 250g, just the right size for a hearty meal. If you order a cod saddle, this is just a very thick steak, ideal for cooking whole. Our cod for steaking or loins comes from Cornwall and is of the finest quality.

Saltfish or bacalhau

Would you like a recipe leaflet for salt cod?

In Spanish bacalao, in Portuguese bacalhau, in French morue, in English saltfish. Saltfish is made from various varieties of cod: cod, ling, saithe and tusk. It's a dried and salted fish which keeps all the good qualities of fresh fish - only the water has been removed. Soak them out to make wonderfully soft fish cakes. Traditionally eated in Spain, Portugal and the West Indies. Very fashionable. 500g.

Fresh haddock

Fresh haddock

Ref: 2003

Quantity:



Haddock fillet or loin, skin on or skinless?


Our haddock is from large fish, so the fillets are large (compare with other online fishmongers!) and it has a wonderful flavour, it's the best you can get. Many of our customers prefer it to cod, it's a bit firmer with large flakes than cod. Order haddock fillet (skin on or skinless) or haddock loin, which is haddock fillet with all the bones removed (also skin-on or skinless). Currently haddock stocks from the North Sea are healthy, so SUSTAINABLE.

Hake

Hake

Ref: 2116

Quantity:



A whole hake, a hake steak, a hake saddle or a hake fillet?


Hake has a wonderful flavour, this will come from Fleetwood where all the best hake comes from. One of our customers had a whole baked hake for Christmas and said it was "outstanding". Hake has a soft texture and a flavour all of its own. Order

A whole hake, which will come cleaned with its head on 2kg (4lb 6oz).

A hake steak, 200g or 7oz, which we cut from a whole hake.
A hake saddle, which is a thick steak that's ideal for baking 1kg (2lb 3oz)
A hake fillet 500g (1lb loz)

Fresh whiting

Fresh whiting

Ref: 2141

Quantity:



A whole whiting or two whiting fillets?


Whiting has a very delicate texture and flavour, it's a favourite in France where it's called merlan. Order either a whole whiting that's cleaned with the head on, or two fillets. We get our whiting from the Channel and they are large, so sexually mature, so SUSTAINABLE.

Fresh pollock

Fresh pollock

Ref: 2134


Price £3.35

Quantity:

Pollock is similar to cod but it has a more delicate flavour. It's best eaten fresh and new, so preferably don't freeze it, because it tends to lose flavour. We sell these as 250g (8oz) steaks. SUSTAINABLE.
