Silver Belly is a graceful coastal fish prized for its clean taste and soft, easily flaked flesh. Its subtle flavour makes it an ideal canvas for regional spices or simple lemon-herb preparations — a favourite for family dinners and light café menus in Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah and Ajman. We select specimens for consistent size and texture, then apply rapid chilled handling and hygienic filleting to protect natural taste and nutrients. Nutritionally, Silver Belly supplies lean protein and marine fatty acids that support heart and brain health while remaining gentle on the palate. With seven years of seafood sourcing and cold-chain expertise, DIORfreshfish inspects every lot, records temperature logs, and packages fish to arrive kitchen-ready. The result: dependable quality for busy households and chefs who value flavour, nutrition and trustworthy handling.

FAQs

Is frozen Silver Belly as nutritious as fresh?

When frozen promptly after catch and kept unbroken in the cold-chain, Silver Belly retains most nutrients and flavour. Proper thawing preserves texture.

How can I tell the Silver Belly is fresh on arrival?

Fresh fish has a mild sea aroma (not sour), firm flesh that springs back, bright skin sheen, and clear packing/dispatch timestamps when provided.

What’s the best way to cook Silver Belly to avoid drying it out?

Use quick, medium-high methods (pan-sear, grill) or gentle steaming. Remove from heat as soon as flesh turns opaque and flakes with a fork.

Are there concerns about mercury or contaminants?

Silver Belly is a small-to-medium coastal species; it generally carries lower mercury levels than large predatory fish. However, vulnerable groups should follow local health guidance on serving frequency.
