Bone

Bones of Wahoo simmer into fumet—gentle heat, not a rolling boil. Light roast adds colour. Strain carefully for a clean stock. Keep wahoo bone iced until cooking; pat dry for browning, and stop when just opaque (or leave rare when quality allows for seared or raw service). Grilling, searing, poke, and smoking suit the cut. Season with salt, acid, and fat that frame large mild flake.
