Alaska Gooseneck Barnacles (Percebes): Complete Guide
Alaska Gooseneck Barnacles: What Are Percebes?
Gooseneck barnacles, often called percebes, are an unusual shellfish delicacy prized for an intense briny, ocean-forward flavor. Global Seafoods offers Fresh Gooseneck Barnacles – Premium Alaska Percebes (5 lbs).
What Do Gooseneck Barnacles Taste Like?
The edible meat is tender and distinctly marine, with a concentrated shellfish flavor. Because the flavor is naturally assertive, simple preparation is usually best.
How to Eat Them
After brief cooking, hold the hard shell end and carefully twist or peel back the leathery outer covering to expose the edible meat. Open them carefully because hot liquid can remain inside.
