The pike-perch, also known as zander, resembles a long and thin perch but is often darker in colour, has a distinct lateral line, and lacks red fins. The upper surface is black. A pike-perch can reach up to 15 kilograms, however, fish weighing up to 3 kilograms are the most common, whether at the end of a fishing rod or in a fish market. Pike perch is one of the most flavorful and delicious freshwater fish available. The white, firm, and lean flesh can be paired with a variety of spices and condiments. The meat is salt-tolerant and suitable for the great majority of fish recipes. Just Provisions offers a selection of Pike perch in frozen fillet and whole fresh fish.
