Carp Whole

$41.99
SKU
024015100000-1
Weight Label
1 fish (4-6lb)
Good taste is a Citarella tradition. So, when holidays call for recipes featuring this freshwater gem, we offer the creamiest, firmest catch available. Carp is often used to make gefilte fish—and ours are meaty, mild, and ready to impress. They're wild-caught from the icy waters of the Great Lakes fishery, and will come to you stunningly fresh. Never frozen. Never cryovac'd. Always delicious.

Note: Making gefilte fish? Please be aware that the filleted or ground weight of the fish will be half that of the whole fish (e.g. a 2-lb. pike will yield 1b. of ground meat). You can also request to have all the works (ATW)—head, skins, and bones on the side—either with or without ground onions.
