Farmed sea bass is raised in sea pens and sold at a steady size all year: a sleek, silver-scaled fish with a dark back and a white belly.

The flesh is white and moist with firm flakes and a clean, slightly sweet taste, and the skin crisps up well in a hot pan or over coals. At this size it makes one whole fish per person.

Suitable for

  • Pan-frying
  • Grilling
  • Barbecuing
  • Roasting whole
  • Baking
  • Steaming

Ideas

  • Crisp-skinned fillets with crushed new potatoes and salsa verde
  • Whole bass baked with fennel, lemon and white wine
  • Barbecued whole fish stuffed with herbs and garlic
  • Steamed bass with ginger, spring onion and soy

How much to buy

One 300-400g whole fish per person, or 150-180g of fillet per person.

Your size and preparation

Small: a whole fish of about 300g to 400g, giving about 140g to 180g filleted, serves 1. Choose how you want it: we prepare it for you at no extra cost, and the price is for the whole fish.

  • Whole, gutted and scaled: about 270g to 360g
  • Filleted, skin on: about 140g to 180g
  • Filleted and pin-boned, skin on: about 130g to 170g

Season

Farmed, so available all year round.

Storage and freezing

Keep covered in the coldest part of the fridge at 0-4°C and cook within 1 to 2 days.

Freezes well for up to 3 months if tightly wrapped; thaw overnight in the fridge.

Chef's tip

Score the skin lightly and press fillets flat with a fish slice for the first 30 seconds so the skin crisps evenly without curling.

Allergens
