About Omble chevalier

Omble chevalier is the French name for Arctic char, a freshwater fish found in cold northern waters. It is sold whole or as fillets, fresh, chilled, or frozen, and may also be preserved or cooked; these forms differ from the raw fish.

The flesh is usually pale pink to orange, with a firm, fine texture and a mild flavour often likened to trout or salmon. It can be prepared by baking, pan-cooking, grilling, or smoking. Appearance and flavour vary with the fish’s diet, origin, and handling.
