Through close and long-term cooperation with trusted suppliers, Neerlandia can ensure a constant supply of high quality fresh mullet.

Other customers also looked at this:
Mullet (often referring to the red mullet, Mullus surmuletus) is a small ray-finned fish with a reddish color, belonging to the mullidae (goatfish) family. It is known for its fine, slightly sweet taste and is often caught along European coasts.
Mullet lives mainly in the North Sea, especially along the South Holland and Zeeland coasts, in the Wadden Sea, and sometimes in the Eastern Scheldt. It likes sandy bottoms or shell banks in shallow places.
Mullet feeds on:
Mollusks
With its bearded threads, it scours the bottom looking for food.
Worms
Small crustaceans
Bottom feeders
Mullet is tastiest when you cook it:
In the oven with vegetables and white wine
Its fine meat makes it quick to cook and very flavorful.
Baked briefly in olive oil or butter, with lemon and fresh herbs
Grilled on the barbecue, whole or as fillets
Prepared à la Méditerranée: with tomato, garlic, olives and basil
Mullet is a reasonably sustainable choice, especially when caught with lines or small-scale nets. In the North Sea, the population is stable, but note that bottom trawling methods are less environmentally friendly.
