1. Autumn

The Calendar To Pay CHEAPER Fish And Seafood According To The Season.

Scallop shell: it's best around mid-October because there's no coral (or not a lot).

It is then the delight of amateurs. But you have to wait, after the holidays, in January, to see its price drop.

Rouget: the season for this Mediterranean fish begins in September. And the closer we get to January, the lower its price will be.

Sole: choose Hastings sole which is meatier this time of year.

You will find it cheaper in winter on the stalls of fishmongers. On the other hand, refrain from buying from February, because it is the beginning of its reproduction period.

Autumn is also the season for mussels, oysters, pollock, squid, conger eel and mackerel.

Whiting: kids love it! Its taste is not too strong and it is very economical.

With the whiting you can make croquettes and freeze them, especially when it is not expensive. Convenient to have breaded fish at low prices!

Grey sea bream: it is from January to March that you will find the best sea bream at competitive prices.

Normal, this is when the sea bream fishing is abundant.

Squid: due to its multiple origins, the squid season is quite long, from September to January.

Beware, as it is often sold thawed:ask your fishmonger if this is the case. It will be much better if you buy it fresh rather than frozen.

Winter is also the season for oysters of course, scallops, julienne, pollack, haddock and conger eel.

St. Peter: Saint-Pierre fishing is abundant from April to September. It is therefore at this time that its price is the lowest.

Do not hesitate to choose it rather large, because it gives a lot of waste.

Mackerel: it is fished from March to May and from September to October. It has 2 advantages:it is not expensive and it is very tasty.

In addition, its flesh is full of good fats, the famous omega-3s.

Spring is also the season for brown crab, turbot, sole, cuttlefish, monkfish, julienne, saithe and sea bass.

Sardines: the sardine season is from July to September. It is then delicious, very meaty and not expensive!

Lobster: it is better to deprive yourself of this delicious crustacean during the end-of-year celebrations and eat it in the summer. It is already a very nice size and its price is falling.

Tuna: eat albacore tuna instead of bluefin tuna. The albacore tuna is indeed less threatened than the bluefin tuna.

It's succulent, easy to cook, especially in tartare.
