About
CAUGHT ONE AT A TIME, WITH A HAND LINE
Also known as Cape Kob or Silver Kob, the kabeljou is a fish whose population has been severely impacted by unsustainable fishing practices. When served fresh the kabeljou features succulent and firm flesh and very few bones, which makes it perfect for home preparation. We only stock kabeljou that is caught one at a time with a pole and line as this is the lowest impact way of harvesting this fish.
CONTENT
2 x Kob Fillets (approx. 800g - 1100g per box)*
OR
1 x larger Kob fillet cut in half and vacuum packed separately (approx. 800g - 1100g per box)*
*product spec may vary depending on the size of the fish we have caught

Instructions
Your Kabeljou Fillets will arrive fresh, simply store in your fridge, and use at your leisure (up to 5 days). For home freezing, freeze on the day of arrival, and use within 3 months. The kob’s flesh colour may change when frozen and some flavour loss will occur.
*pin bones are in
Any special requests or instructions can be left in the NOTES section at the Checkout. Eg: Your doorbell does not work, you require a phone call before the order arrives, you would like the fillets / steaks vacuum packed seperately or cut into smaller portions etc.

Eco rating
The kabeljou has been severely overfished with populations at 10% of sustainable levels. Because of this we do not stock any kabeljou that has been caught using trawling or long lines, instead sourcing our fish from handline fishermen in Struisbaai where they are caught one at a time for the lowest possible impact. We also do not support the harvesting and sale of milk kob , stocker kob, soapies or small kob (juvenile kob). – those are undersize, we have a legal size limit of 50cm
ECOSYSTEM IMPACT : Medium
GEAR USED : Single line and hook

Fishwife Recipes
Parmesan Crumbed Kob
If you’re wondering how to prepare your kabeljou, then wonder no longer. The Fishwife is here to share a delicious recipe. You will need:
- 1 x Kob fillet, skin on
- 2 Tbsp dijon mustard
- 1/4 cup parmesan
- 1/2 cup panko breadcrumbs
- 1 Tbsp chopped parsley (optional)
- 1 tsp minced garlic
- 20g melted butter
- Salt & pepper
- 4 Tbsp mayonnaise
- 1 lemon
Preparation:
- Remove the fish from packaging and pat dry with paper towel on both sides.
- Line a baking tray with foil and grease with Spray & Cook.
- Place the fillet on the foil skin down.
- Spoon the mustard onto the fish and spread evenly so that the entire fillet is coated.
- Season the fillet with salt and pepper.
- In a separate dish combine the parmesan, panko crumbs, parsley, garlic and melted butter to make the crumb topping.
- Sprinkle the crumb topping evenly over the fish until the entire fillet is coated.
- Place the fish in the oven on a medium grill on the highest rack for approximately 15 minutes, or until cooked through.
- Keep an eye on the fish so as not to let the crumbs burn. If the crumb topping is burning, drop the fish to the middle rack and cook for a few minutes extra.
- Serve with lemon mayonnaise: in a small dish combine the mayonnaise with the juice of 1 lemon, stir and enjoy!
