Description
Wholey Wild Alaskan Pollock is delicious, healthy, and is the most abundant certified-sustainable wild fish on the planet. This fish is a member of the cod family, with a similar flavor, texture, and appearance.
Alaskan Pollock has a creamy tan color, mild, and delicate taste with white flesh, large flakes, a slightly coarse texture and a low oil content. It has a similar but somewhat milder flavor as haddock or cod. Due to its mild flavor and inexpensive price Pollock is a very versatile option for restaurants and is also commonly used to make Surimi.
Wholey Seafood offers frozen, skinless/boneless fillets in excellent condition. Our Pollock fillet products are individually quick frozen (IQF). The seasonality varies around October through March. It is wild caught, using the otter trawling method. There are a variety of cooking methods for Pollock fillets: baking, broiling, frying, steaming, or sautéing.
