Deliveries and in-store
Walleye
Gill net caught, Lake Erie, Canada
$23.00 per pound
Walleye is so popular that it is the official state fish of Minnesota, South Dakota, and Vermont. Although it is often called "walleye pike," it is actually a member of the perch family.
Walleye has a sweet flavor and a delicate flake, and it can be prepared in virtually any way—sautéed, baked, and grilled. My mother's favorite Florida restaurant serves this Great Lakes fish topped with artichokes and tomatoes, then drizzled with béarnaise sauce. Seafood Watch rates walleye a "Good Alternative." Higher mercury level. Kosher.
Icelandic Cod
Line or trawl caught, Iceland
$22.00 per pound
Icelandic cod is the same species as the more familiar Atlantic cod, but the jury is still out on whether or not they are separate stocks. In any case, Icelandic cod comes from the chilly waters around Iceland and is generally much larger and more migratory (thus leaner) than its overfished southern relative.
The cod we are featuring is of the highest quality, cut exclusively from the loin. Cod is firm with large, succulent flakes, and it has a mild flavor. You can do almost anything with it—unlike most fish, it stands up to hearty sauces. It is great for fish and chips, and It is good sautéed, steamed, baked, and fried. Icelandic cod is MSC certified. Low to moderate mercury level. Kosher.
