Yellow Edge Grouper
Fruge Seafood is featuring yellow edge grouper this week.Found in the waters of Florida and the mid-Atlantic states as well as South America, Central America and the Gulf of Mexico, the grouper belongs to one the largest fish families in the sea, the sea bass family. The most popular being red grouper (found in most markets/restaurants), but there is also black, yellow edge, scamp and snowy grouper found in limited quantities. The grouper fish has a mild but very unique flavor, somewhat of a cross between bass and halibut. Grouper meat cooks up very firm, with big flakes and holds its moisture better than many other fish. Since grouper is a leaner fish you might need to baste it when broiling or baking it.

Wolfish
Ever tried it? This is a great fish that is perfect for grilling or baking. The ferocious-looking wolfish gets its name from the sharp, protruding teeth it uses to feast on lobsters, clams and other shellfish. Found from southern New England to Greenland and the Barents Sea, the bottom dwelling cold water creature is primarily a bycatch of trawl fisheries targeting cod, haddock and other ground fish. Iceland, which has a direct fishery for the species, is the largest producer.

Rainbow ‘Green’™ and Ruby Trout
The larger sizes of the Ruby Trout are getting harder to get. The fish are not growing as fast as we would like. For the next month 8-10 oz and 10-12 oz Ruby will not be available.
The rainbow trout supply seems to be stable. The variety of the cuts and sizes of this fish never cease to amaze me. There are many options to meet your menu specifications.
