                                                Orange Roughy

 Orange Roughy   
 

Orange Roughy is a deep-water species harvested at depths of up to 1,000 meters in the clean cold sub-antarctic waters of New Zealand and Australia in the South Pacific Ocean.

Orange Roughy is one of New Zealand's larger fisheries and is harvested year-round on a sustainable yield basis.

This premium product is either rapidly iced or frozen-at-sea to retain its delicate fresh-caught flavor.

The white Orange Roughy fillet is individually layer-packed and then quick frozen in 10kg plastic interleaved shatter packs that allow each fillet to be used without unpacking the whole carton.

Orange Roughy has gained wide consumer acceptance, notably in the United States market, as a white fish fillet of exceptional and consistent flavor. The white skinless and de-boned fillets are of medium-firm texture and mild flavor. Orange Roughy is suitable for most cooking methods. The fillets remain moist on cooking, hold shape and flake nicely on preparation.
