The Pelúa, a flat fish recognizable by its oval body and eyes on the left side, comes directly to your table from the Ayamonte Fish Market. With an oblique mouth and a dorsal fin starting in front of the upper eye, it features a lateral line that defines a noticeable curve above the pectoral fin. Its color varies from light brown on the ocular side to white on the ventral side, with distinctive black spots on the caudal peduncle and small spots at the base of the dorsal and anal fins. This species is highly valued in gastronomy, appreciated by different names such as peluda and tapaculo, mainly spread along the Andalusian coast. The latter name is more common in ports of Huelva and Cádiz. Each kilogram contains between 30 and 35 pieces.
