Mixed Whitebait

A tier

Mixed whitebait is the traditional market product of assorted juvenile clupeids—often sprat, herring, and related small fish—sold frozen or fresh for frying whole. Texture is uniformly crisp when cooked hot; flavour is gentle and oceanic. Toss in seasoned flour, fry, and serve with lemon and brown bread. Quality is bright eyes and no ammonia. Mixed packs are honest about not being a single species—ideal for classic British whitebait plates.
