Mahi Mahi

Hook-and-line caught, US

We love mahi mahi! Although it is sometimes referred to as dorado or dolphinfish, mahi should not be confused with dolphin (which as you know is a mammal, not a fish). Its Hawaiian name, referring to its swimming ability, means "extra strong."

Mahi mahi has pinkish translucent flesh and a sweet, delicate flavor. The texture is moderately firm, and it has large, moist flakes.

Seafood Watch rates mahi mahi a "Best Choice.” Low to moderate mercury level. Kosher.
