Heart

Catfish heart is a secondary product of careful fish butchery with stronger flavour than the fillet. Clean thoroughly and use only very fresh fish. Cook soon after cleaning; pair with acid, herbs, and aromatics. Yields are small—treat as a specialty component rather than a main protein portion.
