    I love the white skin on halibut. It crisps up beautifully when you fry a sort of salmon portion cut on the skinside. Bit of flour, salt and pepper, and you’re golden. If I had a whole side of skin I’d put some seasoning and flour on it and deepfry it for crisps.

    Reed, another awesome video! 🐟🐠🔥 Hey I’ve been spearing a lot of common carp lately. Have you ever cleaned carp? If you haven’t give it a run. The ones around here at least have incredible meat. They have become one of my favorites though they are kind of a pain to process. I fillet then and then trim out the easier boneless bits for regular cooking. I throw the bones portions in the pressure cooker. The pressure cooked meat is soooooo much better than canned tuna or salmon. Anyway. I dare ya to slap a big slimy carp on the table if you haven’t. 🤣 Love the channel. Some of the best watching on the internet.

    Up here in Alaska, pretty much everyone avoids the belly meat on halibut. It is always riddled with worms. Aways.

    • @steven6709
      @steven6709 3 месяца назад

      When I went to Homer ( a few decades ago), I remember a halibut that over 230 lbs. on the dock. Also other that were close to that. There was one captain that was well known for finding these monster fish. They don't call the doormats up there, they were known as barn doors. I still have my hat "Homer AK home of the Barn Doors.
      I didn't hear if Reed said where this halibut was flown in from.
      Here in NJ, the few summer flounder that are keepers are called doormats. A 10 pounder is cause for celebration.

    While halibut meat is mild and mostly flavourless, I find the skin to be very savoury. I think that if you cut the halibut skin into small chunks and fried it, you’d get some amazing tasting “chips”. I haven’t done this yet but I do plan on doing it with the next halibut I catch.

    • @sirloin8745

      I go spearfishing for halibut during late summer and often cook it in camp. I like cut the thick part of the fillet in fairly thick slices, cover it in seasoning and flour and sorta shallow deep fry it on the Trangia until its golden all over and perfectly moist inside and the skin bubbles up and becomes crispy like … well … crisps. Or fish scratchings if you like. Its effing awesome. A decent size halibut has a fair amount of fat under the skin and between the flakes. Nothing crazy like Salmon but just really good when fried to a crisp 😄 I disagree it’s flavourless, its just mild, sweet and not fishy but with a fair amount of umami for such a white fish. If you wouldn’t call plaice, flounder, tongue or brill flavourless then certainly halibut isnt either. Turbot is a bit more flavourful perhaps but other than that I think its one of the top flat fish, not the most delicate but better than flounder and plaice for sure.

    I'm also a Florida Boy, 727 represemt! Am with any skin or meat left over, crab traps, catfish bait, or put In a blender and freeze it, then use it as chum when you go fishing. Plus halibut skin, sliced thin, makes good bait for pinfish, grunts a d crockery to use as bait for tuna, grouper, snapper etc.

    @echosierra9450 3 месяца назад

    Having seen your other videos where you eat fried/roasted fish tails because they're like fish potato chips, I would recommend that you try deep frying the fish skin. The fat content in the fish skin crisps it up nicely, and the sinew becomes crispy as well. If you're working with an oily fish such as mackerel or salmon, the skin (and bones, especially the skeleton, as long as you remove all of the meat first) will crisp up in the oven or air fryer as well.

    You truly are a master at your craft, but something is less than optimal in the photo documentation. Maybe better lighting or something would help. I feel like I'm missing a lot of the details due to poor illumination or camera technique of something. Believe me, I'm not being critical. It's just that I would like to see even more detail of what you so masterfully exhibit. Thank you.
