Whitefish
Trap-net caught, Lake Erie, Canada
Just in time for the Hanukkah, we offer tender whitefish, which thrives in the cold, deep waters of the Great Lakes.
Whitefish is a reliable all-around fish. It has large flakes and is thick, rich, and versatile, and its fat content makes it particularly flavorful and excellent for smoking. You can use it in just about any recipe that calls for a "white fish." Really, a quick sauté with lemon and butter, is all you need. See our recipes page for more inspiration. Seafood Watch rates it a "Good Alternative." Low mercury. Kosher.
1 lb. for $14.00

Bay Scallops
Wild caught, Gulf of St. Lawrence, Canada
If you haven't tried these tiny gems yet, please do consider them! Bay scallops are sweet and mild, with a firm moist texture. They are delicious in pasta, as ceviche, baked with herbs, or lightly pan-seared.
Further, they are dry-packed, meaning that there are no chemicals added. Wet-pack scallops on the other hand are soaked in a water-retentive sodium triphosphate solution so that 30% of what you pay for is water. Plus they exude so much water that they can't be properly seared. Our scallops will caramelize nicely. They are sweet and delicious. Seafood Watch rates them a "Best Choice." Low in mercury.

Gibsons Steakhouse Seasoning Salt
Ingredients: Salt, spices, dehydrated onion and garlic.
We are selling this product because a dietician recommended it for a friend with heart issues. It contains only salt, spices, and dehydrated onion and garlic, and it is the secret ingredient that some say makes Gibsons steaks so good. Because it is a healthy alternative to straight kosher salt, we wanted to try it.
The verdict? Gibsons proved to be excellent on fish too!
Net weight: 6 ounces for $6.00
