Introduction

If you ever traveled to the Middle East or Gulf, you must have come across Hamour – Ghissar fish in fine dining restaurant menus. A very bulky fish, Hamour is one of the major seafood exports from Pakistan. Hamour – Ghissar is a vast category of fish and several types of Hamour are abundant in Pakistan. Loved throughout the world because of its sweet flavor, Hamour is a very versatile cooking option.

Flavor Profile

Hamour is a lean, moist fish with a distinctive yet mild flavor. Hamour meat has large flakes and a firm texture. Hamour’s flavor profile is like a cross between Barramundi and Halibut. Even though it is lean, this fish is forgiving during cooking and can be rather difficult to “overcook” in the sense of drying out. Fillets hold together well enough for poaching if handled gently and they flake apart very easily on the plate. It is easy to de-bone completely and an ideal fish for the most delicate culinary situations.
