How to call suzuki
【suzuki】sea bass スズキ 鱸
Sea bass is known as a type of fish that lives near rivers and coasts. There are several origins of the name for the sea bass, but many of the names are inspired by the appearance of the sea bass, including the fact that the scales are as beautiful as if they had been rinsed. In the Kanto region, young fish are called “coppa,” those 20 to 30 cm in size are called “seigo,” those 40 to 60 cm in size are called “fukko,” and those larger than that are called “basu.” Another fact is that they are called by different names depending on their size. It is popularly known as “Hakura” along the Ariake coast.
The peak season for suzuki
The season for sea bass is from June to August. At this time of year, the meat is fatty and has an elegant yet rich flavor that is irresistible. However, the sea bass with young that comes from the sea to spawn from autumn to early winter is said to be so fatty and delicious that it is called “harabuto.”
Sea bass inhabit a wide range of inner bays throughout Japan, and the amount of sea bass caught does not change much throughout the year.
