Cooked Scup

Cooked Scup

EverydayCooked

Cooked scup is a mild-flavored saltwater fish (also called porgy) prized for its delicate, flaky texture and subtle sweet-nutty flavor. This lean protein source contains moderate levels of omega-3 fatty acids and is traditionally prepared baked, grilled, or pan-seared in Northeastern U.S. coastal cuisine. Unlike many fish, its small bones soften significantly when cooked, and its low mercury content makes it a sustainable choice compared to larger predatory species.
