Neerlandia Urk began processing flatfish in 1972. Due to more stringent government regulations for catching flatfish, Neerlandia began processing salmon.
Yellowfin sole is a species of flatfish found in the North Pacific Ocean, from the Bering Sea to Southern California. It has a distinctive body shape, with both eyes on one side of its body and a flattened appearance that makes it blend into the ocean floor. Yellowfin tuna is a nutritious source of protein, omega-3 fatty acids and other important nutrients, and is sustainably caught using responsible fishing methods. It is known for its delicate flavor and firm texture, making it a versatile fish that can be used in a wide range of dishes.
Plaice is an oval-shaped flatfish that is caught year-round in the North Sea and elsewhere. It is one of the most important fish species for Dutch fisheries. Dutch fishermen in the North Sea hold one-third of the European catch quota for this species. Plaice live on the sea floor and eat mollusks and worms. Razors and ragworms are live foods for plaice that are good for thickness and flavor. These species live in the soil, just like plaice. But what distinguishes May plaice from regular plaice?
Neerlandia has started importing flatfish species directly from the United States since December 2021. Currently, there are major stock shortages due to the stagnation in the traditional supply of seafood. Therefore, the processing of rock sole, yellowfin sole and Alaska plaice is started. There is already great interest and a large number of applications.
