Description

Dover Sole, the premier white fish with a unique and delicate flavor, is a choice pick for elegant dining during the holiday season. The very best Dover Sole comes from Holland, so that’s where Legal Sea Foods sources this wild-caught favorite.

As a mainstay of the European seafood scene for generations, it is considered one of the foundations of Continental cuisine.

Dover Sole can live for 45 years and are first available to commercial fisheries at about six to seven years of age. They spawn annually in winter, males at four years of age, females at age five.

Each mature fish served in restaurants weighs between 24 and 28 ounces and, by tradition, is impressively filleted at the table in full view of the diner.
