PRODUCT INFO
Meagre is a premium white fish prized for its delicate flavor, firm texture, and impressive versatility in the kitchen. Sometimes referred to as stone bass or corvina, Meagre has a mild, slightly sweet taste and moist, flaky flesh that holds up beautifully to grilling, roasting, pan-searing, and even raw preparations like crudo or ceviche.
Native to the Mediterranean Sea and eastern Atlantic Ocean, Meagre is often sustainably farmed, offering a high-quality, eco-conscious alternative to wild white fish. Its clean, elegant flavor profile and appealing presentation—featuring pearly white flesh and a silvery-gray skin—make it a favorite among chefs looking for a refined yet approachable seafood option.
Ideal for a wide range of cuisines and culinary styles, Meagre is a versatile and nutrient-rich choice that delivers both on the plate and for the planet.
