These fish are firm fleshed with a nutty, sweet flavor. Sole or flounder may be dredged in flour then sautéed. These fish are good for broiling, steaming or baking (en papillote), and served with a butter sauce. Sole is also one of the best fish for use in fish terrines. *NOTE: Pacific flounder and lemon sole are often marketed in the U .S. as Dover sole. However none of the flounders are related to the English sole, solea vulgarius. The only reprehensive of the solidae family is the hog choker, but this fish only reached 6 inches in length. So even though the fish has an excellent flavor its size prevents commercial use.

When born, flatfish swim upright like many other fish. As the fish
matures, it turns sideways and one eye moves to the other side. Depending
on the species, the eye may move right or left.
