New Year’s Resolutions, meet elite wild-caught seafood. You’re going to get along just fine. Wild-caught seafood has a clarity to it—clean, briny, unmistakably oceanic—that farmed fish can’t fake. Fish that grow in open water develop firmer texture and deeper flavor because they’re constantly moving, feeding naturally, and living in cold, mineral-rich environments. That translates to seafood that sears beautifully, flakes cleanly, and tastes...
