Thanks. Our version of flounder, from the Pacific side of Mexico, is called 'linguado'. It is a little too tender for baking without becoming mushy. Taste is wonderful. Usually, I prepare it as sole meuniere with a pasta. Always a hit.
But I think I will try cabrillo, a bit firmer white fish. It is a vague relative of grouper and plentiful in the wild as well as the market.
Have a great day!

I really like the taste and texture of salt cod. Sadly, salt cod is almost impossible to find where I live in the state of Jalisco, Mexico.
What is a suggestion for a fresh fish substitute? Robalo? Grouper? Cabrillo? ??
