  • Pollack is one of the most sustainable species of white fish available. There are plentiful stocks of this beautiful iridescent fish in and around the South West, making it a brilliant replacement for hugely popular, but unfortunately now under threat, Cod. 

    With large flakes, Pollack is firm and juicy. Anything you can do with a Cod, you can do with a Pollack, which makes this fish utterly versatile and a big favourite of ours. From simple panfrying to sizzling on the barbecue, dicing up and adding to a comforting fish pie or simmering gently in a fragrant curry, the list of variations goes on and on. 

    Pollack is recommended as a species we should be eating more of due to its low impact catch method, availability and abundance on our British shores. 

    You'll find Pollack distributed throughout the Atlantic, living close to the shore or near to the sea bed around rocky reefs and wrecks. As the Pollack grow they will migrate to deeper water where they will mature at around 3 years old, however, it isn't unheard of to catch Pollack at nearer 10 years old, as they can live up to 15. 

    All our Pollack is MSC certified and recommended by the Cornwall Good Seafood Guide. 

    Approx 180g per fillet.
