Often nicknamed "Buckethead" (and no, it's not because they've been listening to too much guitar music 🎸), Lingcod boasts a grand noggin and a mouthful of pearly-sharp chompers.
Lingcod stands apart with its unique attribute: its mesmerizing shade of blue meat. This captivating hue is a natural phenomenon due to a pigment called biliverdin which can be found in the blood of some fish. While the raw Lingcod has this gorgeous blue hue, the moment it hits the pan or the grill, the blue hue vanishes, giving way to a pristine white delicacy. It's a transformation that adds a touch of wonder to your dining experience.
Toss it on the grill, pop it in the oven, or give it a little sizzle in the pan, and voilà! Lingcod has a delightful, flaky bite every time.
