Centre Cut

Centre-cut fillet of Whiting is the thick uniform middle—best for matched pan times. Avoids thin tail and belly taper. As a centre cut section of fillet, portion for even cooking and clear labelling. Keep whiting centre cut iced until cooking; pat dry for browning, and stop when just opaque . Frying, steaming, pies, and gentle baking suit the cut. Season with salt, acid, and fat that frame delicate thin fillet.
