Does Barramundi Have to Be Cooked Through?

Wild barramundi has a great flavour and texture, but you must take care when cooking it, as it is a really dense-fleshed fish that needs to be cooked through. The caramelised lemon is a real sweet-sour concoction; adding the fresh ginger and lemon thyme at the last minute balances its flavour beautifully.

Can you eat undercooked barramundi?

Yes! It is great as sashimi, sushi, crudo or in ceviche.

How do you know when barramundi is cooked?

The best way to tell if your fish is done is by testing it with a fork at an angle, at the thickest point, and twist gently. The fish will flake easily when it's done and it will lose its translucent or raw appearance.
