Whole John Dory - 800 - 1kg

John dory are bizarre-looking fish with huge mouths, narrow bodies, and spiny dorsal fins. 

Their name is strange too. In fact, it sounds more like the name of a bloke you met in the pub than a fish. It’s likely however that the name refers to its yellowish hue and is derived from the French words for yellow, jaune, and gilded, dorée. 

John dory offer very comparatively little flesh for their size. However, they are highly prized by top chefs thanks to their pearly white, delicate and firm yet flaky texture.
