Panko Crumbed Australian Barramundi ~290g

Australian saltwater barramundi from the Daintree, in a light, crunchy panko coat and ready for the oven.

Barramundi likes warm water and salt, and that’s what it gets on Infinity Blue’s Daintree farm in Far North Queensland, where the rainforest meets the reef. Barramundi grown in salt water tends to taste cleaner than freshwater fish, without the muddy note some people expect from barra.

The fish is coated in panko, a Japanese-style breadcrumb that’s coarser and flakier than standard crumbs, so it cooks up crisp and golden without feeling heavy. Under the crumb you get firm, mild white fish that flakes cleanly.

Why it’s Better

• Australian barramundi: the fish is Australian-grown, not imported.
• From the Daintree: raised in saltwater ponds on Infinity Blue’s Daintree farm in Far North Queensland.
• Clean, mild flavour: saltwater-grown barra avoids the earthy taste that can turn people off.
• An experienced grower: Infinity Blue has been farming barramundi since 2001 and runs one of the world’s largest barramundi hatcheries.
• Panko crunch: a coarse Japanese-style crumb that crisps up well in the oven or air fryer.
• No prep: crumbed and ready to cook, so dinner is on the table in under 20 minutes.

Know Your Farmer
Infinity Blue is the barramundi brand of MainStream Aquaculture, founded in 2001 by two mates, one a doctor and the other a plumber. The business has grown to become the world’s largest commercial barramundi hatchery, and around a third of the world’s farmed-barramundi fingerlings come from its hatcheries. Its Queensland grow-out sites include a farm near Port Douglas, close to the Daintree, where fish are raised in high-salinity saltwater ponds.

If you’d rather do your own thing with it, we also stock Infinity Blue’s Daintree barramundi fillets uncrumbed.
