{"title":"Fish Cheeks","description":"","products":[{"product_id":"frozen-cod-cheeks","title":"Cod Cheeks","description":"\u003cp\u003eCod cheeks are a true seafood delicacy, a hidden gem often reserved for those in the know. These tender, small morsels are the lean, ovals of muscle found on the head of an extra-large cod. Because there are only two per fish, they're a rare and prized item, much like beef tenderloin. To ensure you can enjoy this treat at your convenience, we flash-freeze our cod cheeks at the peak of freshness, locking in their exceptional flavor and texture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eFlavor and Texture:\u003c\/b\u003e Our frozen cod cheeks are celebrated for their unique characteristics. When thawed, they have a mild, sweet flavor, similar to a scallop, but with a more tender, succulent texture. They are not flaky like a cod fillet; instead, they are firm and dense, offering a delightful bite that holds up well to a variety of cooking methods.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003ePreparation:\u003c\/b\u003e They are incredibly versatile and cook in a matter of minutes. For best results, we recommend thawing them overnight in the refrigerator. Many chefs prefer to simply pan-sear them in a hot skillet with a little butter, garlic, and fresh herbs until golden brown. This quick cooking method keeps them from becoming tough and highlights their naturally sweet flavor. They can also be grilled or deep fried. No matter how you prepare them, cod cheeks are a fantastic way to elevate any seafood dish.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Intershell Seafood","offers":[{"title":"2 Lb","offer_id":51217982030105,"sku":"SQ2155881","price":35.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"5 Lb","offer_id":51217982062873,"sku":"SQ2155882","price":84.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0941\/8856\/8857\/files\/cod_cheeks.png?v=1769090830"},{"product_id":"east-coast-halibut-cheeks-2lb","title":"Halibut Cheeks - Frozen 2 Lb","description":"\u003cp style=\"white-space: pre-wrap;\" class=\"\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"citation-15 citation-end-15\"\u003eHalibut cheeks are a culinary secret coveted by chefs and seafood enthusiasts alike.\u003csup class=\"superscript\" data-turn-source-index=\"1\"\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c\/sup\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan class=\"citation-14 citation-end-14\"\u003eOften called the \"tenderloin of the sea,\" these large, succulent medallions are the lean muscle found on the head of the wild-caught halibut.\u003csup class=\"superscript\" data-turn-source-index=\"2\"\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c\/sup\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan class=\"citation-13 citation-end-13\"\u003eBecause a halibut yields only two cheeks, they are an exceptionally rare and sought-after delicacy.\u003csup class=\"superscript\" data-turn-source-index=\"3\"\u003e\u003c!----\u003e\u003c\/sup\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e To ensure you can enjoy this special treat anytime, we flash-freeze our halibut cheeks at their peak of freshness.
