It is a stunning finfish for display, both for its bright red head and skin and its impressive size. It can be cooked whole (gilled and gutted) by baking, steaming, or deep frying, but is also ideal in fillet form for grilling, barbecuing, steaming and frying. If deep frying or grilling whole larger varieties, score the flesh first.<\/p>\n<p>The flavours of teriyaki complement this species and it can be marinated in similar flavours. Try poaching in coconut milk or apple cider for a refreshing change.<\/p>\n<p>The gut cavity can be filled with a mixture of herbs, rice, breadcrumbs and nuts before baking.<\/p>\n<p>The skeleton and head are excellent for use in stocks, sauce bases, soups and bouillabaisse.
