A Deep Dive into Mexico's Freshest Fish The coastal state of Veracruz plays a key role in many of Mexico’s most famous fish dishes. The phrase ‘a la Veracruzana’ immediately conjures up a freshly caught white fish served with a mild tomato sauce chunky with olives, capers and herbs, but no chiles…one of the few sauces in Mexico without any chile at all. Not to be missed: Huachinango a la Veracruzana, Snapper Veracruz style, delicious, beautiful, healthy and easy to prepare. Like snapper, redfish is a sweet, mild tasting fish that appeals to every type of diner, from pescatarian to beef eater. Its firm flesh remains moist during cooking, resulting in a very tender and flavorful entrée. Because redfish works beautifully in a variety of dishes, it’s perfectly positioned as a blank canvas for your own signature masterpiece. We’ll get you started with the Guajillo Painted Redfish at right.

Our Redfish Fillets are farm raised; COenhanced to retain their original color, and turn snowy white when cooked. 30
