The Kuromebaru, in particular, has seen a marked decline in catch and has come to be regarded as a high-class fish among the mebaru.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Kuromebaru is highly valued as a foodstuff for its chewy texture, eating quality due to its refined fat, and its vermilion coloration, which is translucent white with partial light shading. The scales are large and easy to peel off, and the bones are not so hard that they are easy to cook. Compared to Akamebaru and Shiromebaru, it has a softer texture when cooked.<\/span><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong>Share this article<\/strong><\/p>\n<div class=\"heateor_sss_sharing_container
