Houbou, or Bluefin Sea Robin, is a prized catch in Japan, known for its striking red body and vibrant blue-tipped fins. Beneath its bold appearance lies a delicate, sweet, and slightly briny flesh with a fine, firm texture.

Culinary Notes:

• Flavor: Mild, clean, and umami-rich with a subtle sweetness.
• Texture: Firm yet tender, holding its structure beautifully in raw and cooked applications.
• Best Uses: Sashimi, crudo, grilled, roasted, simmered in dashi, or featured in bouillabaisse.
• Bonus: High collagen content in the skin and bones makes for exceptional broths.
