Fish
Ventral
Ventral fillet of Walleye runs toward the belly—more fat and softer grain. Good for grilling and richer plates. As a ventral section of fillet, portion for even cooking and clear labelling. Keep walleye ventral iced until cooking; pat dry for browning, and stop when just opaque. Pan-frying, shore lunches, and baking suit the cut. Season with salt, acid, and fat that frame fine white flake.
