Hirame, Japanese Flounder (1.5 - 1.8kg)

Larger Hirame have a better balance of fat and amber colouration. Our fishermen in Japan only catch the finest Aomori Hirame, which is a type of shiromi (white-fleshed fish) and usually referred to as Olive Flounder. Rarely seen outside of authentic Japanese restaurants, Hirame is considered a classic sushi/sashimi dish and is truly in season during winter. It is most commonly enjoyed as sushi or sashimi where its gentle sweet flavours allow all the ingredients to shine. 

Whole or Filleted
This fish is available whole or filleted. Whole fish may weigh slightly less than listed with the innards removed. Filleted fish weights are nett flesh yields with the head, bones and innards removed.
