Cuisine & Edibility

European Sturgeon

Critically Endangered — consumption is illegal throughout its range. Historically prized for its delicate flesh and black caviar; now one of the world's most threatened fish species.

Mahi-mahi

Firm, slightly sweet flesh with large, moist flakes and low fat. Excellent grilled, blackened Cajun-style, or in tacos; one of the most popular sport fish for the table.

Species Overview

European Sturgeon

The European sturgeon is a critically endangered anadromous fish that can live over 100 years. Once abundant in European rivers, it is now restricted to a small population in the Gironde estuary. Its eggs are harvested as beluga-grade caviar.

Mahi-mahi

The mahi-mahi, also known as dorado or dolphinfish, is among the most colorful pelagic fish in the ocean. Its iridescent blue, green, and gold body fades rapidly after death. It is a fast-growing species, rarely living beyond five years.
