Unused Fish (S10E18)

S10E18

Luna lionfish and black rabbitfish are examples of often-overlooked seafood that frequently gets thrown away. The reason? Many people aren’t familiar with them, and they can be tricky to handle. However, as ocean temperatures rise and common fish species decline, these lesser-known varieties could play a vital role in global diets. We follow a fisherman who sells these fish directly to consumers and visit a restaurant that focuses on unusual seafood dishes. Peter Barakan picks up a simple cooking technique and uncovers the advantages of exploring unconventional fish. Throughout this journey, we also delve into Japan's rich fish-eating traditions.
