And the first prepared Gravlax . This will be used on rye bread then as eggs romano then in a salmon casserole on Sunday . I had to trust the wife to take the photo as my hands were lurking full of fish oil .It is salted sugared and dill . I now have boiled the trimmings and will pick what meat is left to use in a soup. We have calculated that will get more than 30 plates of food from this fish ,so less than 1€ per plate for the main ingredient.View attachment 184796

Wowzers!! That looks amazing!

What time do I need to be there?? lol

Red Snapper is fantastic. Had one in South Africa, eons ago.

I've never cooked Red Snapper, but I had some at a restaurant in San Diego, Calif. several years ago and it was the best fish I've ever had!

Todays big buy a Nowegian sea salmon about 3kgs ( 6 1/2 pounds over the pond) View attachment 184794

That looks amazing - as does what you did with it. I love fish and seafood

My dog does that with rain and HEAT! lol

She's the same, she will sit in the sun for hours(nowhere near your temps) but she doesn't like walking in it. Rain never used to bother us, we'd go out in all sorts. I always loved it as nobody else would be about but we've joined the fair weather walkers society lol

Brilliant. Salmon isn't one of my faves, mind you my culinary knowledge of our ocean brethren, beyond cod, haddock and tuna is limited lol

Always wanted to try red Snapper and monkfish and scallops. I should buy some and give it a try, just don't trust myself with raw fish.

I genuinely read this as Salomon ….. and was about to agree that I don’t like him much either ??

I have just read that out to my wife and it hit me why do we say fish and seafood ? Isn't fish sea food ? Off to google -as a guess it will be the pope or the Americans who have named it that way .

Afternoon all , long time no speak so hope you’re all well. Just had a couple of pints with @Barnfred 55 , which was a very enjoyable experience culminating in a disagreement over who’d pay . Fortunately the licensee settled the ‘minor dispute’ by basically covering it , leaving us to sort the tip .

I’ve had to fly off to a prior engagement but hopefully we’ll catch up again . Pleasure that mate , great company.

Likewise mate. Deffo do it again.

By the way. This was the scouse version of "couple".

My take on it is that seafood is things with shells. Used to differentiate it from fish that have fins and swim! Could be completely wrong though.
