Tail Cut

Tail-cut of Walleye is smaller and faster-cooking. Fold thin ends under for even heat in sauced dishes. As a tail cut section of steak, portion for even cooking and clear labelling. Keep walleye tail cut 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.
