Dinner tonight 4/10/2020

[jmcquown]

A baked cod fillet and baked alongside, frozen hush puppies. Believe it
or not the hush puppies (Savannah brand) taste just like they came right
out of a deep fryer, sans the grease. Crisp outside, light and fluffy
inside. :) I'll be steaming some broccoli to go along with it.

Got anything planned for dinner tonight?

[Dave Smith]

My wife had had her heart set on the local Lion's Club fish fry. Beats
me why she thought it would still be held with this social distancing
thing a happening. Once I confirmed it was off she got some fish
fillets out of the freezer. I think it is trout tonight.

Nachos, maybe.

[jmcquown]

Yeah, I don't think this is the time for social gatherings. Oh boy, I
still don't live near enough to anywhere to get fresh water fish like
trout. I would like to try it one day. It's not likely to show up in
South Carolina supermarkets, not even frozen. Enjoy!

I've been contemplating tacos or maybe cheese quesadillas. Maybe

FWIW, the trout I get at Costco is individually wrapped and frozen
fillets. It's pretty good. We also have access to fresh farmed trout.
Apparently there are trout farms about 150 miles north of here.

There was a small time trout farm/ fishing pond about two miles north
of here. A friend of mine grew up there. His family sold it and it
changed hands a couple times. One of the subsequent owners was a
co-worker of mine, but he lost it. There was a bit of an upheaval in the
real estate market. When his mortgage came up for renewal they said the
mortgage was more than the place was worth and would not renew. Pity,
it was a nice piece of property.

We elected to support a local business. While I was out getting a
prescription filled, I dropped by a local German restaurant and picked
up mettwurst, spatzen, and German potato salad. I called it in and
they had me pull up out front, brought out the packaged meal, and
slipped it through the passenger-side window.

I could probably find it at Costco. The nearest Costco is in Savannah,
Georgia. Even without Covid-19, I won't drive to another state to go
shopping. Not even to give trout a try. :)

Good for you! I'm glad some restaurants are able to do that. It's a

You say that as if they are a million miles apart. I can get to the US,
through two states and into a third one in less time that it would take
to get to another Canadian province. ;-)

But I agree that an hour drive is a little excessive just to go
shopping. I imagine that other stores might have frozen trout, but I
have to say that I have been really impressed with the stuff from Costco.


BTW... I was wrong about the trout yesterday. It turned out that she got
Atlantic salmon fillets out. They were fantastic.

It was indeed. When my friend still lied there with the parents we were
there a couple times at feeding time. Wow. They were like piranhas going
for that trout chow. Some years later I went there on a Dec. 30 and got
some fresh trout for supper. We had friends coming and I had planned to
serve trout stuffed with seafood. Around 2 pm I went over to the trout
farm. The fished out four trout and cleaned them for me. I should have
got him to bone them too. That turned out to be a lot more work than I
had bargained for.

For Jill: Try salt water trout sometime. Grey or Speckled.
The speckled is firmer and a bit better.

Also tilapia is similar enough to fresh water trout imo and
your grocery will sell those.
I've caught and eaten small rainbow trout before.


And now for Dave:

Trout stuffed with trout?

Filleting a fish takes a thin, razor sharp fillet knife and a
loose hand. Takes a bit of practice too. I don't do it often
enough to be very good at it.

(laughing) Yeah, I know. Still, it's 100+ miles round trip. Nope,
that's not me.

I recall when 'sf' still posted here, she practically insisted I drive
to Yemassee, SC simply because they have the only US outlet for Sebatier
knives. Uh, why would I do that? There's nothing else in Yemassee to
make the drive worthwhile.

You really don't get it, do you? I just searched the Publix web site
specific to types of trout. They don't carry frozen trout of any kind,
speckled or otherwise. They do, however, sell smoked trout fillets.

Yeah, I've tried tilapia. It's a nice mild fish. So, I guess I can say
I've tasted trout. ;)

It took me well over an hour to bone four trout.

I rarely used to go to the one that is only 16 miles from the one
nearest to me and didn't bother renewing my membership for years. I
finally renewed 2-3 years ago when I started going there with my friend
and saw the great deals they have on stuff we use. My wife loves cheese
and eats a lot of it, and it is less than half the price they charge in
most grocery stores. For instance, my wife picked up a wedge of Brie at
Zehrs it was more than $6. It was about 1/4 of a wheel of one of the
brands Costo carries and they only charge $9.99 for the whole wheel. I
have the usual list of things to get there... individually wrapped
frozen fish, shrimp, pineapple drink, cheeses, and then there are
impulse purchases.

However.... it's too far for you to drive and even if you went once
because you were there it's not worth the membership.

> One thing I'm not interested in doing is cleaning or boning whole fish.

Nor am I. I wish I had thought to ask the guy to do it for me. Part of
the problem was that I wanted to remove the bones but keep the two
sides attached so they could be easily stuffed. I suppose it would heve
been much easier if I had just filleted them and tied them back together.

[Dave Smith]

Sorry. They are not at all alike. I like trout. I do not like talapia.

[jmcquown]

I don't think that would have worked.

Jill

[dsi1]

My guess is that buying pre-made food and grocery shopping will be a major vector in the spread of Covid-19 in a place where social distancing is practiced. OTOH, you gotta eat.

[itsjoan...@webtv.net]

Bunches and bunches of the restaurants around here are open for take-out
or delivery only. Many of the fast-food joints are drive-thru only.

[Dave Smith]

There is no eat-in available in Ontario for the duration. You can
order food and pick it up at a lot of restaurants. Even my corner bakery
cafe has take out only. I am not even sure if it is hurting their
business. Any time I have been there over the last couple weeks there
has been only one or two people in the store, so there is always one
person at the counter ordering, so it is likely close to the same volume
of customers they usually have. It's just nor full of people eating in.

[jmcquown]

I guess that's a good thing. I've rarely ever relied on take-out, pick
up or a drive thru.

Jill

[jmcquown]

As a person who rarely goes out to eat, I have to say it doesn't affect
me. Thing is, lots of people have been relying on take out as the only
way they eat anything. That includes McD's drive through and a bunch of
others.

Restaurants that aren't "chains" are having to figure out how to drop
some food in the trunk or through the window, wearing gloves and masks.
There's nothing normal about this.

Meanwhile, I'll keep cooking at home. Making homemade freezer meals as
I have for the last 40 years and not worry about take-out or drive thru.

boning trout is a nightmare. I just don't do it enough to become

Are you some kind of communist or something? That's anti-American.

I never got the long lines at Dunkin Donuts for the morning coffee either.

Maybe twice a month I grab a sandwich at a take-out, maybe once a month
for dinner. When I was working it was easy to stop on the way home so
we did have dinner maybe once a week. Now it would be more of a PITA to
go out compared to tossing something in the oven.

I did know one couple that never cooked. Most ever done in the kitchen
was a ham sandwich. They just thought it was easier to go out every
night.

I have good access to fresh and frozen farmed trout fillets so I don't
have to worry about boning them. In the past we could usually only get
the smaller whole trout. It was a breeze to slide the cooked flesh off
the bone.

I am always careful about fish bones. I think every time I see a fish
with bones I recall my father going to a business dinner and one of his
colleagues was taken to hospital by ambulance after getting a salmon
bone stuck in his throat. My worst personal experience was the time my
wife baked some whitefish and no matter how careful I was I got a bone
or two in every forkful of fish. That was the last time for whitefish
for me.

Up here it is Tim Hortons. They are everywhere, and they all have huge
line-ups. My wife doesn't understand why they do the drive thru. I have
tried to explain it to here. They don't have to built a store large
enough to have tables. They don't need staff to clean the floors, the
tables and washrooms. They don't need a big parking lot for the
customers cars. No cups and plates to clean, no in store garbage to be
picked up. They just have that one lane and a system for taking and
filling orders and taking all that extra cash and pocketing a lot more
money because they have eliminated half of their overhead.

I know a couple like that. They have a beautiful kitchen that has only
been used by the people who catered dinners and parties for them. The go
out for supper every night. They order only an entree, no appetizers,
desserts, drinks or coffee. They don't have to shop, cook supper or
clean up. For breakfast they have a couple take out coffees and a
couple croassants that have been kept in the fridge. They nuke the
coffee in the morning.


I have to wonder how they are making out in the current situation.

[jmcquown]

It probably is. I won't go looking for it, though.

I wouldn't go searching for it if it that rare, but if you ever come
across smoked trout it is definitely worth trying. However, it is not
going to give you the sense of the taste and texture of a pan fried
trout.

When the Dutch butcher was still in business here he used to have smoked
trout for sale most of the time. A couple years ago I checked out an
eastern European grocery store in Hamilton, about 35 miles from here. It
is not worth it for me to drive there just for that, but if I am in the
city I try to make a point of it. It was just a couple blocks from the
eye clinic where my wife had her retinal surgery, and I used to have an
hour and a half to kill when she went for her check-ups. They had at
least two dozen different types of smoked fish. I am glad my wife has
been discharged from that doctor's care, but I am going to miss my trips
to that grocery.

[Dave Smith]

I have seen worse. I made the mistake of going to a McDonald's drive
thru... twice. In both cases I was on my way home from an afternoon
shift on miserable hot night and craved something cold and soothing. I
pulled up and ordered a chocolate milk shake. I pulled ahead and waited
and waited and waited... close to 15 minutes. I finally got to the
window and the guy told me the milkshake machine was broken. I was
pissed. I had been waiting there all that time and he could have told
me it was broken at the time and I could have baked out and been on my
way.

It was a year or two before I made that mistake again. Same scenario,
really craving something smooth and cold on a miserably hot day. I
ordered a chocolate shake and then waited while several other cars moved
up to pick up their orders. I got to the window and was told the machine
was broken. While I am not impressed with Horton's service, but it has
never been as bad as that.

Don't you still have to kill them? Or are they live food to please

Can't believe Gruce,Fruce,or even Druce would murder an amoeba.
Maybe sniff a few amoeba asses, but murder ... NO.

No way a righteous dutch man, who is not a US citizen would ever
commit animal murder.

Wait, basa is the same thing as panga, not tilapia. Basa/panga is
grown in dank basements. A structureless flavourless fish. When the
Chinese cheapskate restaurants say "fish" in their menus, it'll be
basa.

That's kind of what I was thinking, Dave. I want the taste of fresh
fish, not smoked. I have nothing against smoked fish but I wouldn't
want that to be my first try at trout.

Guess what? I've lived this long without tasting fresh freshwater
trout. Guess I can last the rest of my life without it. I will surely
let everyone know if I find it (likely frozen) at local grocery store.
Everyone needs to relax about the trout, okay? :)

A few years back I worked with a couple who stopped at Dunkin Donuts
every morning on the way in to get (to-go) Dunkin Donuts cups of coffee.
When I pointed out they can buy Dunkin Donuts brand coffee (beans or

Not everyone is interested in cooking, I get that. When I lived in TN I
knew lots of people went out to lunch every day. These same (younger)
people would complain about not having any money, just waiting for
payday. Meanwhile, I brought in a homemade hot lunch every day. I've
been making (and taking to work) homemade freezer meals all my adult
life. Not to say I never went out to eat, of course I did. It just
wasn't a way of life for me.

Or any other fresh seafood. All you buy is frozen grocery store
products from other countries or canned stuff.

Go to your nearby fish market and buy fresh caught. Or buy a
rod and reel and a SC fishing license if you insist on quality
food.

Your local fishermen need to be supported too.

Costco won't have fresh caught trout. Fresh caught fish regardless
which type will be far better than any at market. South Carolina has
plenty of trout for the taking:

Living on an island there's salt water fishing all year... I'm sure
you can catch dinner in 20 minutes. Living on Lung Guyland I could
walk to the beach in under five minutes and bring home a sackful in an
hour by surf casting. Of course not during winter, but your winters
are mild. Fishing is very relaxing... not living near the sea is the
only thing I miss living here. I were you I'd be fishing often...
there must be some good fishing spots on your island... would cut your

I've done both. One place it was easy to go out and get a reasonably
priced sandwich and it would often be two or three of us going. Nice
break in the day. We both left there in 1990 but still good friends

Last place, rarely went out. We had a refrigerator, microwave, toaster
oven so it was easy to make something. Two or three of us ate together
in my conference room every day for 26 years. Both of us, long retired,
still talk about once a week.

[jmcquown]

As if I'm interested in renting a boat and going fishing. No No No.
Another No. I've got plenty of fish and seafood to choose from at the
supermarket. Trout simply isn't that important. Neither is playing
like 'Little House on the Prairie' going fishing at the pond. Besides,
around here there are alligators in those ponds (which are stocked with
carp, not a great eating fish).

It’s easier with the guts in. Within and West of the Rockies, trout are
the chosen game fish in rivers, streams and lakes. I am, or was, a trout
guy. I never boned small trout. They’re really easy to bone on the plate.

Don't let Aloha fool you. If Hawaiians eat "stinkin'"
tilapia, they're eating spoiled tilapia. I'd avoid
that too.

As you said, tilapia is rather neutal. Good for
fish dishes that add other flavors.

Same as chicken breast is fairly neutral and
good for many enhanced meals.

Except for fresh tuna and salmon, I always cook
any other fish the same way. Just a tiny bit
of flavor:

- take a couple of fillets
- put skin side down on a covered cookie sheet
- smear a very tiny bit of mayo on each.
Mayo melts as soon as it hits raw fish flesh.
You end up with a clear glaze, not gobbed on
whitish mayo.
- top fillet with very finely chopped minced onion.
- squeeze a little fresh lemon juice on top

Put under broiler (heat on top) just long enough
to brown the onions. Good stuff!

[Gary]

Bruce wrote:

Filming that would be a great and popular youtube video. :)

[Gary]

Easy enough to scale and gut a fish but even on the east coast
here, spot is a very popular small fish (rarely over one pound)
Rather than deal with the tiny fillets, just cook it whole then
use a fork to sift the meat away from the bones.

Yes, especially when she catches a fish :)

Sounds good. We always just pan fry them with a bit of salt. Or we'll

That's simply untrue, ferretboi, I'm guessing that years of breathing paint fumes have burnt away all of your taste buds, rendering you impotent in a tasting way.

There's a lot of people that find tilapia meat to taste unpleasant in a scummy way. There's a lot of people that won't eat fish in a general way, and then there's people like you. People that find tilapia to taste "neutral" and will eat the stinkin' fish with a big ole grin on their mugs.

Please go forth and consume all the tilapia you can grab ahold of. That's God's plan. After all, Jesus fed 5000 people with 2 tilapia. A miracle - unless they were 5000 Hawaiians, of course.

Culturally, da Hawaiians don't care for tilapia. OTOH, the new generation have different ideas of what they want to eat. They're going to completely change the cuisine of Hawaii.

My kids will order tilapia in restaurants. I like to sample the fish whenever they do. I'm searching for tilapia which doesn't taste scummy. I ain't found it yet. My guess is that breeding tilapia in salt water would solve that problem but I've never tasted salt water tilapia.

Gary, I'm getting a little tired of explaining to why I buy the fish and
seafood I do. Local fishermen don't catch trout. They don't fish for
cod. There aren't any catfish in the South Atlantic and shrimp is one
of my least favourite things. No fresh sea scallops, either, those are
flown in. How about you stop obsessing over it.

That's your pat answer when someone doesn't like a particular type of
fish, Gary. I didn't care for mahi-mahi, therefore it must have been
"spoiled". You'd be wrong.

Jill

[cshenk]

I'm not sure what his fish likes are. With no particular order in
mind, here are some of my favorites:

Catfish, snapper, flounder, scad, lingcod, red salmon, tuna, shark
(meat steaks, not fins), grouper, trout, fresh water bass, sea bass,
and crappie (pronounced croppie) is growing on me.

Once I am nominal about but don't mind:

Tilapia, rock fish, sunfish, cod, butterfish

Ones I mildly dislike:

Mahi Mahi, sword fish/Barracuda, pink salmon

Ones I actually dislike:

Mackeral.

We eat a lot of seafood here. Some of the listed aren't really
commercially available or are west coast only. Some I do not get as
not sustainable but doesn't mean I haven't had them in the past when we
didn't know that.

I didn't think I would ever be able to eat mackeral after working at
Maarineland. I worked part time there as an assistant trainer, and I
started my work days there by dumping hundreds of pounds of Spanish
mackeral into a big tub of water to thaw enough to cut it up into
pieces; cut into 8 pieces for sea lions, quarters for the dolphins,
half for the orca and the elephant seals liked them hole.

One day my wife came home with mackeral steaks. I was not thrilled, but
she pan fried it in butter and made a sauce with lemon juice and capers
and it was surprisingly good.

[Gary]

Jill loves catfish. I'd love to see a video of her catching one.
They even grossed me out when I used to fish as a kid. Didn't
even want to touch it to remove the hook. lol

Also, no scales and you have to skin it. In my mind,
kind of a somewhat creepy fish to deal with. They are also
bottom feeders and only eat dead crap. Crabs are the same
though.

Personally, I'd like to watch her have to bait the hook.
That's a Princess no-no. :)

I'm a fan of catfish, what's wrong with it? I've fished and caught
them but someone else baited the hook. You have to listen closely
when you bring them out of the water but catfish will actually grunt.

They would also gut, clean, and skin them for you at no additional
