Default Not a trash fish.

I always loved this story about the fallfish, contributed to Henry David Thoreau, the American author, poet and naturalist . He said the fallfish was an interesting culinary adventure. Thoreau said, It’s important to prepare the fish well, taking time to properly clean the fish. Take care to remove all the entrails and gills. Remove the blood line at the spine (easiest with a spoon) and rinse thoroughly. Carefully remove all scales and season according to your preferences. Preheat your oven to 325 degrees. Place the prepared fish in a clean paper bag, tightly seal and cook for 1 hour. Remove the fish from the bag, throw away the fish and eat the bag.
