Loin

Loin of Striped Bass is the thick upper back muscle—the prime block for searing, neat roasting, or raw slices where quality allows. Clean grain and uniform thickness. Trim dark bloodline if its flavour is too strong. Keep striped bass loin iced until cooking; pat dry for browning, and stop when just opaque. Grilling, roasting whole, and pan-searing suit the cut. Season with salt, acid, and fat that frame large moist white flakes.
