Red Mullet

Scientifically known as Mullus surmuletus, this species is known for its role in Mediterranean and North African cuisine, particularly in the coastal regions of Morocco.

In the kitchen, Red Mullet stands out for its tender, white flesh and flavor profile that is both sweet and savory. Its versatility in cooking methods such as grilling, pan-frying or incorporating it into stews shows its adaptability to various traditional or non-traditional recipes. It is often used in tagines or served whole for an impressive dish.

Nutritionally, Red Mullet contributes to a healthy diet. Rich in high-quality protein, omega-3 fatty acids and essential nutrients such as vitamin B12 and selenium, it supports muscle health, cognitive function and general well-being. As a low-calorie, lean protein option, Red Mullet aligns with dietary preferences that emphasize both taste and health benefits.
