Bluefish is a rich and oily fish found throughout temperate and tropical waters of the world. While not everyone loves the rich taste of bluefish, we love that this hearty fish can stand up to bold flavors. In our sous vide blue fish recipe we pair bluefish filets with smoky, garlicky butter for a finished dish that is filled with flavor. A squeeze of lemon and shower of herbs makes for perfect plating and adds a touch of acid and freshness.
