Frozen Wild Skate Fish Wing Skin Off
Skate fish are a group of cartilaginous fishes belonging to the family Rajidae, characterized by their flat, disc-like bodies and wide, wing-like pectoral fins. These fins stretch out on either side of their streamlined bodies, giving them a shape reminiscent of a kite.
Chef's Advice
In the kitchen, skate is renowned for its unique texture and flavor. The meat is firm yet delicate and is arranged in a fan-like pattern that easily separates when cooked. Skate is commonly pan-fried, grilled, or poached.
In French cuisine, skate is often prepared with a browned butter sauce, capers, and a squeeze of lemon—a dish known as "raie au beurre noir." In Korean cuisine, skate is sometimes fermented to create a pungent, flavorful dish called "hongeo." Additionally, its cartilaginous wings are sometimes used in stocks and soups to impart a rich, seafood flavor.

Marie Luxe acts as the coordinator of a real artisan fish chain, proposing high quality sea products directly and exclusively from small fishing boats around all the Breton coasts, Normandy, the Basque Country and the Mediteranean.
At the crosssroads of the English Channel and the Atlantic, the Breton landscape offers a multitude of natural and unspoiled sites. Its water, particularly rich in food, provides it with specific zones of exploitation. Brittany is the only area in Europe to still have this diversity of products fished by a fleet of small boats. The hazardous, rocky nature of the sea-beds supports the growth and the multiplicity of the species available.
