What is Whitefish? ~ History ~ Cooking ~ The Types and Much MORE
What Are Whitefish? Whitefish is a freshwater fish that lives near the seafloor that is commonly called Atlantic Cod, Halibut or Flounder. Whitefish, when cooked, are dry and compared to other fishes, the flesh of the whitefish is completely white. Generally, whitefish have silvery scales and stretched numbfish-like body and measures about a foot in length.
Facts About The WhiteFish
Whitefish can be classified into different, unique species that can easily be identified according to their appearance and where they live. One well-known whitefish is the Halibut, a popular fish in Norwegian culture that signifies prosperity. In Norway, there were contests where they have to bring in the largest halibut. Some could even weigh more than 170 lbs.
A Yellowtail Flounder is found all over the East Coast of the US to the Atlantic coast and Northeast Asia. In Japan, flounder is the raw ingredient in sashimi and China, it is served steamed with ginger and garlic as the main seasoning.
Whitefish can either be served raw, baked or steamed. Alaska, the “World’s Halibut Fishing Capital”, has their unique recipe in making Halibut and Prawn Basket dipped in a special batter and lemon juice.
Petting a whitefish is never a good idea because they needed a larger environment and they usually stay in cold, deep waters and only go up for food. Some species of this group live in freshwater while others, once they reached adulthood, would transfer to oceans.
Whitefish also have different sets of diets according to their size. Planktons, small shrimps and larvae are the young ones’ favorite while adults love to eat small fish, clams and other small water insects.
