The Fish Weight
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.
Details & Design
-
Material: Food-grade stainless steel
-
Weight: 1.6 kg – substantial and stable
-
Finish: Mirror-polished base looks beautiful hanging in your kitchen
-
Dimensions: 16cm diameter
- Notes: On the base of the weight there is a dimple where the handle has been welded on - this is normal.
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.

The technique behind it
The steps above are the what. These articles are the why — what the skin is actually doing in the pan, and why contact matters more than heat or oil.

Let customers speak for us
from 156 reviewsAwesome. You could say pans are just pans. But this is a work of art. With the weight as well it’s made fish far more easier to get right / restaurant style.
Absolutely beautiful book and great bundle offer
Seasoning the pan is easy. Works beautifully especially in conjunction with the fish weight.
Crispy skin perfection. One of the best kitchen items I have purchased in a long time is Mr Niland Fish weight. Beautifully cooked fish every time.
Have just bought this as a package with the St Peter's book. Pleasure to receive such a wonderful combo and looking forward to working our way through the delicious recipes
A fantastic book and I’m not a book lover
Saint Peter is an extraordinary cookbook — truly one of the finest I’ve ever purchased. It brings to life the remarkable journey of how it all began and beautifully captures what makes the Nilands’ vision such a phenomenal success. Every page reflects their passion, creativity, and dedication to redefining seafood.
Well done to Josh and Julie Niland, and thank you for giving us such exceptional experiences across all your ventures — whether it’s Saint Peter, Fish Butchery, the Fish Market, or your merchandise. Your work continues to inspire and delight, and I’m grateful for everything you bring to the table.
