Whole Plaice
Hear from our customers
This is our second online purchase of Rick Stein home delivered seafood. This seafood has to be the most wonderful and fresh seafood that I have eaten the plaice so fresh it has glowing orange spots.

The whole plaice was excellent - of a good size with a roe and fresh.

Whole Plaice
350-450g
Native to British waters, plaice is a flat fish with a mild, slightly sweet flavour and tender, yet delicate texture that lends itself well to so many different dishes. From herby lemon and parsley sauces, to crispy, crunchy batters – there are so many ways to cook this tasty fish.
"Although they can be served on the bone or in fillet form, I think plaice is only worth eating whole when no more than a few days old. Otherwise, they are best filleted, floured, egg-and-bread crumbed and deep fried. This nurtures the flavour" – Rick
A truly magnificent centrepiece for an evening of entertaining or just to shake-up the midweek meal.
