Monkfish liver, known in Japan as Ankimo, is a culinary treasure often called the "foie gras of the sea." Its incredibly rich, creamy texture and mild, sweet flavor are prized in high-end cuisine around the world.

We've developed our own special recipe to create a pre-cooked, ready-to-serve Ankimo right here at our facility. Our process honors the traditional Japanese style of preparation, which involves careful cleaning, seasoning, and steaming to achieve that perfect, velvety texture. Each 5-ounce tube is a testament to our commitment to quality, a result of our meticulous process. Once cooked, the tubes are flash-frozen to lock in their exceptional flavor and freshness, ensuring that they maintain their integrity from our facility to your table.

For generations, the monkfish liver was often considered an unwanted part of the catch and tossed back into the ocean by fishermen. However, the Japanese chefs recognized its true potential, discovering that its unique qualities made it a delicacy. Today, Intershell Seafood is the largest buyer and seller of raw monkfish liver in the United States, with a majority of our raw product being exported to the discerning Japanese market.

Frozen items are shipped with dry ice to ensure the arrive fully frozen. Please place them directly into your freezer upon arrival.

If you order fresh and frozen items together, we package your shipment using gel ice packs instead of dry ice to protect your fresh goods. As a result, frozen items may partially thaw during transit. You can safely place them straight back into your freezer, or allow them to finish defrosting and enjoy right away.

Defrosting Guidelines

  1. Overnight in the Fridge: Small packs take 6–12 hours; large packs take 12–48 hours.
  2. Cold Water Bowl: Submerge sealed items in cold water for a faster thaw.
  • Note: Do not use hot water or attempt to thaw by cooking, as this ruins the natural texture and flavor.
