About Snapper

Snapper is a common name for a group of edible marine fish rather than one uniquely specified species. The catalogue label does not identify a particular snapper, so the exact fish and its characteristics can vary.

It is encountered as fresh or frozen fish and in prepared seafood foods, sold whole or as portions and fillets. Flesh appearance, texture, and flavour depend on the fish and its handling and preparation.
