We take great pride in offering British hake, a truly delicious fish. Our hake is sourced from the south coast, and depending on the time of year, it may be softer compared to other species. However, the softness of the hake does not indicate lower quality or a different eating experience. It is simply a natural characteristic of this wild fish, and it may require a more gentle approach when handling. Rest assured, it's a normal part of its natural cycle and does not affect its taste or quality.
To ensure convenience and ease of cooking, we have portioned the hake fillets for you. Hake is known for its delicate flavor and slightly sweet taste, which intensifies when cooked. It is a beloved fish in Spain, where it is referred to as "The king of the fish" (El Rey del Pez). Although it is often enjoyed by Brits while on holiday, we aim to change that and encourage its consumption at home as well.
Hake is a versatile fish that can be prepared in various cooking styles. It is excellent when pan-fried with a squeeze of lemon juice and a touch of butter, accompanied by a braising of aromatic ingredients. Another option is baking it in the oven with a medley of vegetables, allowing the flavors to meld together beautifully. If you're looking for inspiration, we invite you to try our hake recipe, which is both easy to prepare and delicious.
Aside from its wonderful taste, hake is a fantastic choice for those seeking a high-protein, low-calorie dinner option. Being a lean fish, it provides a satisfying and nutritious meal that supports a healthy lifestyle.
Embrace the unique qualities of British hake and explore its delightful flavor and culinary potential. Whether you're looking to experience a taste of Spain or enjoy a lean and protein-rich dinner, our hake fillets are an excellent choice.
