Seafood Choice of the Month
Halibut
Halibut is always everyone's top choice on restaurant menu's as well as cooking at home. Halibut is prized for its delicate sweet flavor, snow-white color and firm flaky meat. It is an excellent source of high-quality protein and minerals, low in sodium, fat and calories
and contains a minimum of bones. Halibut is very versatile in the kitchen, as well, with many recipes for baking, broiling, pan-frying, deep-frying, poaching or barbecuing. Eaten fresh, the meat has a clean taste and requires little seasoning. Halibut is noted for its dense and firm texture. Halibut also has roundish cheeks which are extracted from their head area. Their cheeks are sweet flavored and are considered a delicacy. Supreme offers Halibut filleted, steaked and H&G (Head and Gutted). Halibut fishing season is only from March 15th to November 15th! They are among the largest fish in the sea and the largest of all the flatfish. They can grow to more than 8 ft long and 700 lbs!!! The largest concentration of pacific halibut is in the Gulf of Alaska, more specifically in the Kodiak Island area. A smaller amount exists in the Bering Sea, as well as a large amount coming out of Bristol Bay. Check out the map below to see exactly where this delightful fish is coming from!

Have you ever wondered what Safe Harbor meant? Or what it does? Safe Harbor is the most comprehensive  seafood safety program ever created and is now more rigorous than ever-we have expanded our real-time testing protocol to uniquely include screening for select pathogens and histamine in addition to mercury. Through our stringent testing and screening process we remove uncertainty to allow consumers to enjoy seafood with the utmost confidence. Pictured to the right is David Erickson, David is one of our Safe Harbor representatives here at Supreme Lobster!
