About Ling
Ling is a name used for food fish, commonly referring to elongated marine fish sold as ling. The catalogue label does not establish the exact species, so it should be treated as a variable fish category rather than assigned a particular binomial.
It may be encountered as fresh or processed fish, including fillets, depending on the product. Flesh appearance, flavour, and texture vary with species, cut, and handling. Nutrition comparisons should match the identified fish and whether it is raw, cooked, or otherwise processed.
