Scientific Name: Anoplopoma fimbria

One of the oiliest and richest white fish available, discerning chefs revere Sablefish for its sweet flavor profile. Similar in texture to Chilean sea-bass, Sablefish, or blackcod, is a deep water species that thrives off the West Coast of North America. Blackcod is brought ashore by Trawlers or Long Liners, “J-Cut” (named for the Japanese style of cutting at a 45 degree angle along the collar) and immediately sold fresh, or blast frozen to seal in oils.
