About Channel catfish
Channel catfish is a freshwater fish native to North America and widely raised for food. Its flesh is pale, mild-flavoured and moderately firm, with a moist texture when cooked. It is commonly sold as skinless fillets, though whole fish and other cuts are also available.
The fish is typically cooked by frying, baking, grilling or other methods suited to its mild flesh. Fresh and frozen fillets are common forms; whole fish may include skin, bones and other parts absent from a fillet. The name refers to the fish itself, not to a specific cut or processed product.
