Wild Skate Wings are a traditional British favourite, valued for their firm texture and sweet, mild flavour. Landed fresh through Brixham Fish Market, they are prepared to order and delivered in perfect condition, never previously frozen.
Why it’s special: Selected directly at the Brixham Market auction, our skate is caught in the North East Atlantic and carefully chosen for quality. Each wing is trimmed and prepared by our skilled fishmongers to ensure outstanding freshness.
Quality & versatility: With its firm flesh and distinctive flavour, skate is perfect for pan-frying or poaching. The natural cartilage structure makes it easy to portion and serve, while its delicate taste pairs beautifully with capers, brown butter, or fresh herbs.
Serving inspiration: Pan-fry with butter and capers for a classic French-style dish, or poach gently and serve with seasonal vegetables for a lighter option.
