PRODUCT INFO
Bronzino, also known as European sea bass, is a mild, flaky white fish prized for its delicate flavor and versatility in cooking. Its
slightly sweet taste pairs well with a variety of seasonings, making it a favorite for roasting, grilling, and whole-fish preparations.
Native to the Mediterranean and eastern Atlantic, bronzino is a true sea bass, known for its sleek, silver skin and firm yet tender
flesh. It is commonly served whole, as its bones and skin help retain moisture and enhance flavor during cooking.
Most bronzino weigh between 1 and 2 pounds, making them perfect for individual servings. Their light, clean taste and elegant
presentation make them a staple in Mediterranean cuisine and a popular choice in fine dining.
