This type of fish is versatile and can be cooked in a variety of ways, allowing it to work with many recipes. With its light taste and fine flakiness, the dory fillet is sure to please anyone. Dory fish is a type of whitefish that comes from the river basins in Southeast Asia. It is sustainably farmed and contains very few impurities, making it one of the most popular types of fish for restaurants and supermarkets around the world. This type of fish has become increasingly popular due to its firm texture and low-fat content. Dory fishes are usually harvested when they reach lengths between 10-15 inches long and weigh anywhere between 1-2 pounds each. Dory fillet is usually sold with the skin on, which helps keep the fish moist and flavorful during cooking. It can be fried, sauteed, poached, or baked for a delicious meal that’s full of flavor. If desired, the skin can be removed before cooking as well. Dory fillet also pairs well with strongly flavored ingredients like garlic or herbs for an extra boost of flavor.
