Turbot’s a delicious fish, the king of the sea. It has a perfect firm texture and meaty flavour, making it highly popular with most of the best chefs. It is similar to Halibut, but it is smaller and with a more delicate taste. The Frozen Turbot might be costly, but the price is worth it.
They are the biggest flatfish in the South West, fast-growing fish that are normally large and strong! It holds a royal status along with the Dover sole and the lobsters. Turbot’s texture resembles halibut, but it has a much distinct and prominent flavour. Therefore, it does not require much seasoning to improve the taste. They are considered versatile fish as they can be cooked in various ways, such as poached, roasted, pan-fried and steamed.
The Turbot is individually processed and frozen in a matter of hours after capture to maintain the best quality and preserve its natural flavours and nutrients. The fish is frozen instantly, either on sea or on land, at shallow temperatures to avoid ice crystals from forming. The fish is sliced into fillets, packaged in pairs, and blast frozen. Other portions are available to be further processed into soups, frozen meals or specialised products.
Frozen Turbot has a tender texture and a mild taste, good for baking and sautéing. Turbot is an outstanding source of protein and Omega 3 oils, which is a huge benefit. Turbot is a valuable fish that is easily digestible and low fat: hence it is suitable for a low-calorie diet.
It also contains vitamins, such as B3 and B12, and minerals, like potassium, iodine, phosphorus, magnesium and calcium. Phosphorus is necessary to protect teeth and bones, while iodine is essential for the proper functioning of thyroid hormones.
Calcium is critical for the development and wellness of teeth and bones. At the same time, potassium helps maintain normal blood pressure and can reduce the risk of recurring kidney stones and the risk of bone deterioration during old age.
