Palamut or Bonito Fish on Display in Market in Istanbul, Turkey

The season for the Black Sea palamut fish, called bonito, is from August through January. They tend to be less than two pounds and are often filleted and then grilled like a steak. They are a firm, large-boned fish that tastes similar to tuna or mackerel. This display at a market in Istanbul, Turkey, lets you choose from three sizes of palamut.
