Did you ask what those fish third from last are? I don't recognise them and I would as they have big eyes. Not Ling. I would have bought a couple and if a fillet off the first was rubbish made a fish stew with mussels and had I the money one of those magnificent lobsters. An onion, a few potatoes and I would have been in culinary heaven. I do it quite often. I drop the cheap horrible stuff like Ling into a pot with raw onion and potatoes then make a quick soup with the juice and deboned rubbish fish. Wonderful it is with cream and lumpy potatoes. PS. I usually fillet and take the eye bones out then press Ling between kitchen towel and loads of newspaper. Same with Dogfish. It makes a good base but is disgusting on it's own.
I didn't have the nerve to interrupt his selling for frivolous questions. He was, I'm pleased to say, very busy. I would love to live somewhere where the fish is fresh.

DeleteI'm not much of a fish/seafood eater, but when I do I want it fresh and it doesn't get any fresher than this.
ReplyDeleteGood cod, man... there's something fishy going on here!
