Sea bass is a fish that lends itself well to various classic cooking methods such as baking or pan-searing. Chef Matteo Grandi's recipe uses the oil-cooking technique which "curls" the scales of the skin.

Matteo Grandi, chef of the award-winning restaurant Matteo Grandi in Vicenza, has devised a dish featuring wild sea bass fillet known for its flavorful meat. In this recipe, he pairs the sea bass with his reduced broth, marinated cucumber, and a dusting of Liquorice and Saffron Panettone powder.
