Our wild fish is caught off the Cornish coast by small boats fishing out of the stunning port of Looe. The BBC series ‘Coast’ featured the port, saying its day boat system brings in “the freshest fish obtainable anywhere in Britain.”
Jamie Morton-Clark is down at the port each morning when the boats arrive. He’s our fishmonger so he’s in charge of picking up the best catches. “The fishermen use a variety of methods to catch certain types of fish and do what they can to protect the stability of fish populations,” he explains. “For instance, they have increased the size of the mesh in their nets which gives young fish a better chance of escaping from the haul. They also target species they know are in plentiful supply in different seasons.
Sourced for us by Jamie Morton-Clark in Cornwall, these wonderful scallops come from Brixham in Devon - they are diver caught when conditions allow. King scallops are remarkable - at their best when seared very quickly on either side. They can also be baked, or used in fish pie or risotto - they will add a sense of luxury to any seafood dish.
There are 8 in a pack - serves 2, or 4 as a starter.
