Preparation Ideas
Mullet's high oil content makes it incredibly well-suited for cooking methods that highlight its moist texture and rich flavor. This is how the locals love to prepare it:
- Smoking/Grilling: This is a classic method! The whole fish is excellent when split and roasted over an open flame, such as a charcoal grill or hickory fire. The high oil content prevents it from drying out and absorbs smoky flavors beautifully.
- Pan-Fried: A simple and delicious preparation. The cleaned, whole fish can be scored, seasoned, and pan-fried until the skin is crispy and the meat is tender.
- Baking/Roasting: Stuff the cavity with herbs (like rosemary, thyme, and lemon), drizzle with olive oil, and bake until the flesh is flaky. This is a simple, healthy way to enjoy its natural richness.
Description
Mullet is a historical and culinary staple along the Carolina coast and the wider Southeast, prized for its distinct, rich flavor and high oil content. It’s a favorite among locals! The flesh is firm, white, and noted for a rich, nutty, and savory taste—a flavor that many find superior to other popular white fish. The high oil content makes it particularly moist and flavorful.
