SUZUKI (Japanese Seabass)
inhabit seashores and estuaries. Many Japanese cities have developed near these places since ancient times. Suzuki have shiny white flesh with an easily recognizable broad-flaked structure and a mild flavor. They have traditionally been one of the most popular targets for Japanese anglers. In the Kanto area, including Shizuoka Prefecture, it is called Seigo when under 25 cm. At 3 years of age, when it has attained a length of near 60 cm, it is called Fukko or Suzuki.
Because their name changes as they grow, the Japanese have associated it with advancement in life and believe that SUZUKI (Japanese Seabass) is a luck-bringer fish.
Like hirame flounder, suzuki makes an elegant paper-thin sashimi, suzuki usu zukuri, which is as pleasant to pronounce as it is to eat. Suzuki sashimi is often served with ponzu, a citrus-flavored mild soy sauce, or served in the summertime on a bed of ice cubes with tangy shiso leaf and a scattering of red pepper flakes.
