Croaker
Croaker is a food-fish name covering multiple species, encountered whole or as portions with texture, flavour and preparation varying by product.

About Croaker
Croaker is a common food-fish name used for a group of fishes rather than one precisely identified species. The catalogue entry does not narrow the species or indicate whether the item is fresh, frozen, or otherwise processed.
Croaker may be encountered whole or as prepared fish portions, depending on the product. Its appearance, texture, and flavour vary with species, cut, freshness, and processing; the name alone does not establish a particular preparation or culinary use.
