Eels have been one of our specialties for more than 70 years. Ours Eels are fresh-water wild Eels, Anguilla Rostrata, caught in the Autumn, from a sustainable source in Canada. These eels come chopped in pieces, in a 500g bag, ready for the pot. Their texture is relatively firm but yet delicate, slightly chewy to the bite, similar to that of the Octopus but more tender. Eels have an exquisite sweet flavour, perfect for frying or in sushi.
