Funzionalità Premium
Sourcing Pirarucu
Ensure the Pirarucu is sustainably sourced. It is a large and slow-growing fish, so responsible fishing practices are crucial. Look for certified sustainable options.
Browning the Butter
Pay close attention to the butter while browning it for the sauce. You want a nutty aroma and golden-brown color, but avoid burning it. Keep the heat medium-low and stir constantly.
Cooking the Fish
Do not overcook the Pirarucu. It should be cooked until just opaque and flaky to avoid dryness. Sear it skin-side down first for a crispy texture if the skin is on.
Lemon Juice Timing
Add the lemon juice at the very end of cooking the sauce to preserve its bright and tangy flavor. Adding it too early can make the sauce bitter.
