About
Halibut fillet is a firm, lean cut of flatfish that weighs slightly more than an equal volume of water.
Raw halibut fillets have a typical density of 8.76 pounds per gallon (1.05 g/mL), which means they sink in fresh water. A measured volume of 1 US cup of prepared fillet weighs approximately 8.75 ounces (248 g). Because this flatfish has dense, muscular meat with very little internal air, it packs similarly to other lean white fish like cod. A standard 6-ounce (170 g) dinner portion takes up roughly 0.69 US cups (162 mL) of physical space.
From Wikipedia
Halibut is the common name for three species of flatfish in the family of right-eye flounders. In some regions, and less commonly, other species of large flatfish are also referred to as halibut.
