    The question you should ask yourself when buying a sea dish: Do you want it to taste like the sea, or like a cow?

    • @ArifRWinandar
      @ArifRWinandar 2 года назад +37

      Someone will make a dish out of sea cows for people who don't want to answer that question.

    • @awmperry
      @awmperry 2 года назад +14

      In general, if something can taste like a cow, it generally should.

      I poached some salmon in white wine not long ago, and my realization was that... Yes, I actually don't like the fishy sea taste which is why I like it better poached in wine.
