Cooking Flathead
| Recipes Using Flathead Fish
Cooking
Flathead:
|
Colour of raw
fillet: |
White. |
|
Texture: |
Flakes easily, soft, tender to
firm. |
|
Fat Content: |
Low. |
|
Flavour: |
Distinct, mild flavour. |
The colour of raw Flathead fillet is white. When cooked, the flesh is tender to firm
and flakes easily. They have a low fat content and has a distinct, mild flavour.
Flathead are highly rated table fish with firm, white and flaky
flesh which tends towards dryness in larger fish. They are best
suited to recipes which help to maintain moisture content in the
flesh while cooking.
Flathead fillets are
normally sold wing-on (when the wing is taken off, recovery
is significantly reduced). When comparing prices, compare
fillets of the same type, that is wing-on or wing-off.
Skinned and boned-out fillets, commonly referred to as tails
, are increasingly available.
Gurnard fillets are sometimes incorrectly sold as flathead
fillets.
Flatheads are superb table fishes, with finely textured
flesh. The use of a sauce or marinade will overcome the
slightly dry texture sometimes evident in these fishes after
cooking.
They are a popular choice for traditional preparation of a
light battering, and served with chips and tartare or
mayonnaise. Experiment with baking, barbecuing and poaching
or add flathead to a bouillabaisse.
Add zest with lemon or dill, tomato relish, balsamic vinegar
and garlic.
Skinless flathead fillets have a good recovery rate and are
well known to most diners.
Alternative Fish you can use:
Bream,
hussar,
morwong,
redfish,
tarwhine,
whiting.
