Mullet gizzard is the specialized stomach of a @mullet used to grind plant and other small food matter.

Like some birds and cows that also have gizzards, chickens for example, the mullet gizzard helps the fish digest plant matter.

Mullet gizzards are a delicacy in Florida cuisine.

They are cleaned and usually fried.

The gizzard is a tougher part of the fish because of its use as a specialized stomach to digest matter by grinding and mashing it up.

Gizzards are therefore tough and extra chewy making them especially delicious like chicken gizzards, calamari, and rubber bands.

Though usually fried, mullet gizzards can also be dried and prepared like Asian style like squid or BBQed.
