Fresh Korean Flounder – The Essence of East Asian Seafood, Richly Enjoyed on Vietnamese Soil
The flounder is caught from the clean, cold waters of Korea – famed for mineral-rich currents and abundant marine life. Thanks to the harsh, low-temperature environment, the flounder's flesh is firm and fine-grained, low in fat, with a signature clean sweetness that has made it a strategic Korean export to the US, Canada, China and Japan.
At Ran Bien Seafood, the Korean flounder is strictly preserved after catching, placed in a cold tank to settle, reduce stress and keep its firm flesh structure and natural sweetness intact.
Beyond its flavour, the flounder is likened to a "deep-sea superfood":
Rich in protein: supports tissue regeneration, muscle development and physical strength.
Abundant Omega-3: improves heart function, reduces inflammation and supports brain activity.
Vitamins B12 & D: contribute to red-blood-cell formation, improve mood and strengthen immunity.
Low cholesterol and fat: suited to a healthy diet, appropriate for the elderly, women and children.
Ways to prepare the flounder that preserve its distinctive flavour:
Sashimi: the flounder is filleted right at the table or shortly before serving, then thinly sliced Korean-style. The flesh is fresh and clear, soft and smooth, gently sweet and melting in the mouth. With soy sauce, wasabi or Korean chilli sauce, the flounder reveals its full sweet finish and fresh sea aroma.
Crispy fried: deep-fried at the right temperature, the skin turns crisp while the flesh inside stays soft, white, flavourful and moist.
Come to Ran Bien to experience flounder done to true premium-seafood standard, from selection to presentation, by a team of experienced head chefs – where every dish is a work of art from the ocean.
