One to ponder on IO.
Venom sauce topped off with crushed nuts perhaps?

IO, don't tell me you don't eat catfish and live in the South! Bloody lovely, it is. I also had a fish called shad in the States which I also found delicious. Rosie, Have you had sea bass - they serve it a lot in Turkey. That's delicious. Yes, Jil, quite nice, but not my favourite. I think the nicest fish I've eaten was John Dory. I love skate too. Wish we could get smoked cod and smoked haddock here. Funny, the Dutch smoke all kinds of other fish but not these two. And I love cod's roe, which you also can't get here. They must chuck it away or use it in cat food, I suppose.

I've found that I cannot handle fish if it's "fishy." My experiences with catfish haven't been good. But, there is hope for the southern girl. I do like venison.

I hadn't seen it on sale before, but it seems that most supermarkets (with wet fish counters) are selling it now, plus some fish that I've never heard of. Monk fish is a hell of a good substitute for scampi, as well. Smoked haddock is still my favourite. I love it in kedgeree as well. Mmmm.

Don't feel bad.... My lunch is composed of two bananas and I'm positively drooling after reading Jilona's recipe.

Jilona, I'm going to try that. It sounds both easy and delicious. Maybe later this summer I can start using some of the herbs that I'm planting. Er....not THAT herb!!!!! I.O. You should try Crayfish.Plenty in your part of the World. But best fresh that day. You won't believe this but you catch them with a Bicycle wheel. Truly, it's not a wind up. You put a net on one side of the wheel and attach to the spokes bits of liver and smelly bits of fish as bait. You attach four pieces of string to the upper side of the wheel and to your rod put it all in the water and sit back and wait for an hour. When your take it out the crayfish are clinging to the bait,or fallen in the net. They are like little green lobsters. You take them home in a sack and drop them in boiling water until they turn red. Then eat them just like lobster. Make great spicy salad (non fattening)

Of course, I had to learn how to peel and eat them. And, of course, one is supposed to suck the heads.

There's something very fishy going on here. Sorry had to be said.
Rosie, you should be able to get smoked cod etc. check the internet. Failing that I'll bring some over for you next time I'm off-shore.
I know one that IO will like, baked stuffed yellow tail.
Most fish are delicate so simple is good. Basic steaming and dillweed work well. Seperately make a sauce as rich as you like to serve with it.
Smoked fish like cod can be served with a proper tomato sauce and herbs.
Always make sure that if you have fish with small bones that a wad of bread is available incase a bone sticks in your thoat, the bread will remove it.
Hope this helps! More recipies available on request.
