Buri (yellowtail) is a fish found only in the seas surrounding Japan. While wild buri is a wintertime delicacy, cultivated varieties can now be consumed in the summer and fall as well thanks to advances in aquaculture. Buri also lies at the heart of a longstanding culinary tradition and ranks alongside maguro (tuna) and salmon as a popular food fish in Japan.

The fish is called by different names depending on its stage of growth.  Before becoming buri, the fish is called wakashi, inada, and warasa in eastern Japan and tsubasu, hamachi, and mejiro in western Japan.  Buri is a name reserved for fish over 80 centimeters, while hamachi is used in the west for smaller, cultivated buri.

鰤魚在全世界唯日本近海獨有,冬季的鰤魚最為肥美,日本人把此時捕撈的鰤魚稱為「寒鰤」,視其為日本冬季具有代表性的美味。但最近由於養殖技術的發展,夏秋兩季也可以品味到與冬季一樣鮮美的鰤魚了。鰤的口感幼滑細膩、風味鮮甜,無論做成生魚片或是熟食都相當適合。

油甘魚於日本稱作「出世魚」,因它成長時名字會不斷改變,獲視為「出人頭地」的吉祥物。油甘魚不但美味,而且DHA含量豐富喔!
