Where to buy frozen smelt near me

Whether or not you decide to clean your smelt before cooking is a preference. While you should remove the entrails before cooking, the smelt doesn't need to be deboned. Its small size makes it the perfect snack and most people eat them whole. If you do prefer to clean it before cooking, simply remove the heads, rinse the rest of the body off, and then cook it as you desire. Once cooked, you can eat the whole smelt as is, including the bones.

    The best fish on your dish! Smelt-whitings, sillago whitings or simply smelt, are primarily inshore fish that live in sandy, silty, or muddy environments. Sillago has a lean, sweet, and delicate flavour. It has a flavour comparable to flakier cods. This fish is a fantastic source of protein and vitamin B and is a great dinner option.

    Sillago are versatile fish that you can add to your meal. The most popular way to consume it is as tempura or breaded and deep-fried, yet the taste of the fish varies widely depending on its freshness.

    The picture shows cleaned without heads. They were neither. Needed to be gutted and cleaned. In addition, due to the whole fish they were borderline bad.
    Never order again.

    WHOLE UNCLEANED!! Not what was pictured!!

    The smelts I ordered were supposed to be cleaned according to the picture. I got them whole and I had to filet them myself including cutting off the heads. I have the stomach to do it; but , I would have never ordered them had I known they would be like this. They should change the picture from cleaned smelts to whole smelts. I was very disappointed.

    This product does not look at all like the “whole foods” picture

    I have been trying to find smelt for years, and was so excited to find Anderson's Neck Oyster Company had frozen smelt. The fish were nice and plump, packaged beautifully, with careful attention, and arrived in perfect condition. Except for the plastic bag with the frozen smelt, all of the packaging was recyclable, too. I'm so excited to fry these babies and share them with my family! I will definitely order be ordering again very soon!
