There’s no one better to ask than our Production Team.

It’s a unique and fulfilling challenge to work in a rapidly transforming environment on our farm, integrating new technology and innovation to raise the best yellowtail possible.

Curious about the art of dry aging fish? This process both enriches the taste and softens the texture.

We asked @VizHaarlem about their craft while working with Dutch Yellowtail:

Q: What is your process?

A: The moment the fresh fish arrives, we cut the scales from the skin (never scrape!), which leaves the fish with a beautiful skin that can breathe once it’s in the dryer. This cutting technique is called Sukibiki. After cleaning the entire inside of the fish—even the mouth with a toothbrush and water—we dry it with a towel and put it in the dryer.

Q: How long does it take to age the fish?

A: At least 3, but preferably 4 weeks. We’ll always have 5 or 6 fish hanging in sequential stages of drying. Knowing how long has taken a lot of trial and error, and we decide based on our gut and years of experience.

Q: Tips on how to enjoy the fish, once it’s ready?

A: Either raw, or cooked on the skin—preferably on a BBQ or a Kamado grill, otherwise in a pan is good. When you do it right, the meat is juicy and tender. The fish is getting popular since we will soon need to have more than 5 or 6 Dutch Yellowtail “in stock” at a time.

In season year-round, passionfruit is a consistently pleasant pairing for yellowtail, with its tangy, tart juice with its hint of sweetness.

Here, Chef @TristandeBoer at @TheWhiteRoomAmsterdam marries the two beautifully.
