Hawaiian Barracuda (Kaku) - Sashimi Cut
Kaku is a Hawaiian barracuda that roams the clear open ocean far from shore, a fish local cooks prize and visitors rarely get to try. The meat is firm, lean, and clean, landing somewhere between mahi and sea bass, with a natural oil that keeps it moist and makes it a favorite over live fire.
It stands up to bold marinades and high heat without drying out, rewarding a hot grill with a smoky char and a tender center. For anyone who likes to cook outdoors and wants something a little different, this is a rewarding find.
Best for: grilling and bold marinades. Wild-caught in Hawaiian waters.
A note on weight: Every cut is portioned by hand, so the exact weight varies slightly from the size you choose. You may receive a little over or a little under, and your order is billed at the listed price for that size. That is the nature of a fresh, hand-cut product.
