About Spiny dogfish
Spiny dogfish is a small shark used as a food fish in some markets. Its flesh is pale and firm, with a mild flavour when fresh, and is sold in forms such as fillets or steaks; preparation and freshness affect its texture and taste. The name refers to a fish rather than a processed product, though market handling can vary.
Commercial products may be fresh, frozen, or otherwise prepared, and the edible portion may be cut differently from one seller to another. Common names can be used inconsistently across regions, so a label alone may not establish the exact species or stock. This description is limited to the commonly understood fish identity and does not specify a particular catch or product.
