Croaker, Whole, Raw

EverydayRaw

Croaker is a saltwater fish species commonly sold whole with its head and bones intact, recognized for its mild, slightly sweet flavor and firm, flaky texture when cooked. This lean protein source provides essential nutrients including selenium, vitamin B12, and omega-3 fatty acids, though in lower concentrations than fatty fish varieties. Popular in coastal cuisines worldwide, whole croaker is often prepared through pan-frying, steaming, or grilling, requiring careful bone removal before consumption.
