Golden Snapper 红皂

Not your typical farmed fish —— Golden 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 and suitable for braising or steaming. Kukup Golden Snapper is also widely used by restaurants in Singapore to serve at wedding banquets. The taste and texture of Golden Snapper and Red Snapper are highly similar and are often interchangeable in most recipes. 来自龟咯渔村的海养红皂，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，海养红皂品尝起来更加清甜，也丝毫不带土味。它的肉质柔嫩，特别适合红烧或蒸煮。龟咯海养红皂也经常被新加坡餐厅选用来准备宴会的美食。红皂的味道和肉质，类似于红鱼，两者一般上在料理上可交替使用。
