Fish
Whole
Whole Yellowtail is gutted fish cooked on the bone—roast, steam, or fry. Scale and clean the cavity; score thick areas for even heat. Keep yellowtail whole iced until cooking; pat dry for browning, and stop when just opaque (or leave rare when quality allows for seared or raw service). Sashimi, tataki, and grilled collars suit the cut. Season with salt, acid, and fat that frame buttery firm white-pink flesh.
