The Fish Weight – by Josh Niland
The Fish Weight is a professional-grade stainless-steel tool designed to help you achieve exquisite, restaurant-quality crisp skin fish effortlessly. Created by chef Josh Niland, this elegant piece of cookware ensures your fillet stays flat, cooks evenly, and develops a perfectly crisp skin, all without needing to finish in the oven.

How to use The Fish Weight
-
Preheat your pan with a thin layer of clarified butter (or oil of choice).
-
Once hot, place the fish skin-side down into the pan.
-
Position The Fish Weight directly on top of the fillet.
-
For larger fillets, centre the weight over the thickest part.
-
-
Allow the weight to gently press the fillet into the pan, keeping the skin in full contact with the hot surface.
-
Adjust the weight as needed during cooking to ensure even pressure and uniform cooking across the fillet.
-
Let the heat transfer through the skin and up through the fillet—gently and evenly.
-
No oven required: the fish will cook completely on the stovetop, developing a crisp, golden skin and a tender, perfectly cooked interior.
- Rest the fish skin side up on a warm plate. Season well with sea salt.

A beautiful product that looks too good to use!!!
The customer service was exceptional and very responsive to emails even on Sunday , couldnt be happier with my purchase and it was a pleasure dealing with Mr Niland and staff , nothing was too much trouble for them .
Very happy customer 5 star service!!!
My brother who has every kitchen gadget was ecstatic when he opened this gift
The fish weight changes everything. I have two fish weights--just in case! Fish properly cooked with the weight is of a different order.
This tool is amazing for fish and duck breast. I didn’t expect so much from it. It was definitely worth ordering it from the other end of the world
functions exactly like I believed it to work and functions well. Looking forward to use in barbecue etc as well
I was travelling to Sydney and saw the ad. Ordered right away and delivered to my friend’s address in Sydney. Used it when i arrived to cook salmon and it just works as intended. Im bringing it home to Philippines
The perfect weight and size. Like a piece of art for the kitchen! It’s beautiful and functional.
Was heavier than expected but helps cook the fish evenly.
Definitely recommend it
So easy to have a crisp skin and not over cooked food sh
There is nothing exactly like this. It deserves its place in culinary history as much as the siphon or peppermill. It does exactly what it claims to do, and that is create a perfectly cooked piece of fish without turning… what we used to call unilateral fillet cooking, but better.
