Selection and Storage:
Look for fresh flounder fillets with a good smell, firm texture and moist appearance. If not boned, ask the seafood employee to do so. Store, tightly wrapped, for no more than 1 day in the coldest part of the refigerator.
Preparation:
Pat fillets dry with paper towels. Remove any remaining bones. Fold the fillets into small bundles by turning the ends under so they meet.
