Red Snapper 红鱼

Not your typical farmed fish —— Red Snapper farmed in the Kukup mangrove sea water is only fed with natural small fish instead of artificial feed. Unlike what people expect from most pond-farmed fish, this sea-farmed fish has a fresh sweet flavour with absolutely no muddy taste! The meat is tender but holds together very well during cooking, making it the perfect option for steaming, making curry fish head or fish head hotpot. Kukup Red Snapper is also widely used by restaurants in Singapore to serve at wedding banquets. The taste and texture of Red Snapper and Golden Snapper are highly similar and are often interchangeable in most recipes.

来自龟咯渔村的海养红鱼，在红树林区海水中养殖，并以纯天然小鱼喂养，不使用任何非化学饲料。与一般池养鱼不同，海养红鱼品尝起来更加清甜，也丝毫不带土味。它的肉质柔软，烹煮过程中不易松散，所以红鱼也非常适合用来清蒸，烹煮咖喱鱼头或鱼头炉，味道极佳。龟咯海养红鱼也经常被新加坡餐厅选用来准备宴会的美食。红鱼的味道和肉质，类似于红皂，两者一般上在料理上可交替使用。

Freshness is our number one concern. Our Kukup farms, processes and delivers its premium Red Snapper right here in Pontian. To ensure freshness, we harvest our fish and vacuum-packed within hours of processing. There are no long distribution chains to compromise the freshness and flavour of our fish.

Flavourful

We sell the best-tasting Red Snapper available. That’s a bold claim, but after one taste we’re pretty sure you’ll agree. You’ll find our premium Red Snapper fillets and steaks to be mildly sweet and incredibly clean tasting. Thanks to the pristine ocean waters in which we farm our Red Snapper , our products have no muddy or “fishy” taste.

Safe

We feed this fish to our families, so we’re kinda fanatical about the quality of the water in and around our farm. We purposefully located our ocean enclosures in strong currents which keep clean, oxygen-rich waters flowing through them. In addition to our clean waters, you can rest assured that we do not use any hormones or antibiotics to encourage the growth of our Red Snapper . We believe that the best way to grow robust, healthy fish is to simply feed them high-quality food and let them swim in a clean, natural environment.

Healthy

Our Red Snapper eat nothing but top-quality fishmeal food, basically we feed our fish with small fries, which has little or no wet market value, caught from our Pontian shore.That means fish that are tasty and naturally high in heart-healthy and brain-boosting omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids.

Convenient

With The Fish Club, there is no slopping through the wet market to buy fish. There’s no more lugging dripping bags of not-so-fresh fish home from supermarket. And you no longer need to worry about the fish in the sweltering boot of your car as you drive home. Let us take care of everything. Premium fish, super fresh, delivered ice-chilled to your doorstep.

How To Make: Roasted Whole Red Snapper

Ingredients

ASIAN INGREDIENTS
- One whole 3-pound red snapper, cleaned and scaled
- 1/4 cup chopped cilantro
- 2 tablespoons minced fresh ginger
- 2 scallions, finely chopped
- 1 garlic clove, minced
- 1 teaspoon Asian sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon canola oil, plus more for rubbing
MEDITERRANEAN INGREDIENTS
- 1/4 cup finely chopped parsley
- 2 tablespoons salted capers, rinsed and finely chopped
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper
- 1 tablespoon canola oil, plus more for rubbing
CARIBBEAN INGREDIENTS
- 2 tablespoons minced fresh ginger
- 1 garlic clove, minced
- 1 serrano chile, seeded and minced
- 1 teaspoon chopped thyme
- 1/8 teaspoon ground allspice
- 1 tablespoon canola oil, plus more for rubbing

Steps

Step 1

Pick your favorite flavor combination (Asian, Mediterranean or Caribbean, at left).

Step 2

Choose one of the flavor combinations and chop all of the ingredients except the oil together with a large pinch of salt. Transfer the paste to a small bowl and stir in the oil. Make 5 parallel 3-inch-long slashes on each side of the snapper, slicing almost through to the bone. Lightly season the fish with salt and fill the slashes with the paste. Rub the fish all over with canola oil.

Step 3

Preheat the oven to 425°. Transfer the fish to a heavy rimmed baking sheet so it stands upright. To keep the fish stable, splay the belly flaps and set a crumpled foil ball under the tail. Roast the fish for 30 minutes, until the flesh just flakes. Transfer the fish to a platter. Using 2 forks, lift the fillets off the bones and serve.
