Gurnard
Gurnard ‘Carrots’, ‘grunters’, or just plain old gurnard, this species was one of the piscatorial under-achievers in the culinary world for many years.
They are a magic fish, resplendent with their colourful ‘wings’, but their succulent fillets have not, until recent times, always been fully appreciated.
As the more popular species such as blue cod and snapper became more expensive and difficult to catch, gurnard came increasingly to the fore. The flesh is firm and flavoursome and has become popular, along with tarakihi, in the fish and chip shops around the nation, not to mention on our own tables.
