Ollie famously has hated oysters at every place hes tried. So its a big deal he likes this one. Also crawfish are only around 15% edible meat by weight, so 3-5 lbs is barley a snack for most people. A proper southern seafood boil is very very easy to cook at home if you can source solid seafood. Its literally just a heaping of spices in a pot of water. The most common in the US are either Zatarians or Old bay, of course you can make your own as well.
But then, a true proper boil will include sweet corn on cob, quarter red wax potatoes, and andouille sausage slices as well.
yeah i'll agree with 5 lbs being barely enough for a person. normally for a boil my family goes through 4x 30lb bags.
He also liked the oyster dressing at the last place
You must be from up north. Down south, we use Louisiana brand for the various boils and breading. Works great with their hot sauce too.
Old Bay is the best. Just my opinion.

as a South Louisiana native, I started laughing when I saw the gloves come out. we learn at a VERY young age to not touch our face or eyes or nose when we're eating spicy foods. I've never seen ANYONE use gloves while eating, except on tv or youtube videos.
My family will use gloves if there's a new baby to play with as there skin PH even after washing your hands can give them a bad reaction.
The only time I've seen the gloves were old people or people with cuts on their hands. My grandma used to wear gloves since the spice will aggravate her skin.
@@la8ball as a very small child my mom would make sure I had some of her gloves cause I have really bad allergies. But only until I learned not to touch my face while peeling ;)
Honestly - my mom is Cajun and I lived in Louisiana while I was at LSU and a few yrs later. I find myself cooking for people for pretty much every gift. I could buy my kids’ teachers knicknacks OR take em gumbo in the fall and crawfish in the spring. Nobody in America cooks like Louisiana and it isn’t close.
Literally same here in Galveston
Since you're planning on going to Texas, you will be able to have Gulf shrimp. Best shrimp in the world comes from the Gulf of Mexico. The biggest mistake people make with crawfish or shrimp is in cooking. They don't know about seasoning, and they cook WAY too long so it comes of like paper mache. One way I got around issues when I had my wisdom teeth out and they said jello and liquids for a week, I said screw that. Mom grated some seared pork chop and rolled it in mashed potato. Had early peas to round out the meal, and no chewing necessary, but good protein. Thing is, the mud bugs are seasoned. Get that on your fingers, then it's in your eyes, and everything you touch. The lobster isn't seasoned. So no big deal with gloves. Lobster head isn't suckable because it isn't seasoned. One thing for sure, we will feed you in the South.
Jono, swish hot salt water in the surgical area. It will help keep any gunk out of the hole and will help with the pain. Trust me, it will help.
some information. with Louisiana and Texas being neighbors, they have lap over with their food types. there are MANY places in Louisiana that serve Texas BBQ and there are MANY places in Texas that serve Louisiana seafood. AND with the Interstates (two transverse Texas and Louisiana), it's easy to go from one to the other and get great food from each.
Yep yep 😁👌
Sorta. We in South Central Louisiana like doing our own thing BBQ-wise. If you go to a place boasting Texas style BBQ in Louisiana, you will get Texas style BBQ. If you go to a place that serves our own BBQ, you're getting something unique. Like stuffed brisket, alligator, pork, smoked boudin and other stuff with our twist on it.
As far as Texas Cajun food goes, those respectable places are Cajuns from Louisiana 😁
I've seen a lot people or restaurants screw up with gumbo, jambalaya, and crawfish. That's even in the Louisiana. Idk if it was a foreigners from other states or countries that made it or I got a bad batch. So I am always skeptical about eating Louisiana foods from restaurants and unknown locations. But if I see a diner like this, I would buy it.
@@la8ball you're correct, we start questioning the food north of interstate 10. The further you go, the worse it gets.
@MetalMann-de3xi yes! I live in Southeast Texas. What you said is true! The good stuff is I-10 and south. In this area, Texans go to Louisiana all the time and Louisianans come to Texas all the time. Lots of us are relatives. Here, we laugh when Houstonians and especially Austinites have crawfish boils.
You need to watch their first Louisiana video. They tried a restaurant known for their gumbo and fried chicken -- soul food.
Oh I know your wisdom tooth pain. My two bottom ones also grew in sideways. I got the first one surgically removed when I was a senior in high school. I developed a dry socket with that one but when I was 21, I had the other three removed and they hooked me up to an IV drip that didn't knock me out because I heard the entire conversation and I could acknowledge when asked questions to make sure I was feeling ok and MAN that was the way to go. I seemed to heal faster after that procedure but when my dad came to pick me up, he told me I looked drunk, lol.
Louisiana believes in eating good food.
East Texas here. Just 94 miles from Louisiana. Great seafood, crawfish, crabs, gumbo yumm!
We have amazing BBQ here in Texas. Josh and Ollie have been to several restaurants here. BBQ, Mexican, steaks is only part of it.
In Houston, Texas... you can def get cajun crawfish but Houston has the upper hand because of our viet population here and the creation of Viet-Cajun crawfish... it's a mix of both blends and it's amazing flavors. A lot of crawfish places do both and different levels of heat. Trust me, we love seafood out here as much as we love the bbq
Oh god, YES!! Houston has INCREDIBLE food and is definitely the king of fusion cuisine
The viet cajun crawfish spots in Houston is straight up crack cocaine. You come out of those place needing a nap afterwards.
I grew up on the water in New Jersey. Every summer, we would have a crab pot right in the lagoon behind our house. All summer long, the house was full of the smell of boiling blue claw crabs.
Jono, I use to work for a dental Pharmeceutical company, so I hope you read this. Try something called Ugenal , also called clove oil extract. It is a natural compound that sooths pain. Dentist still use it in the US and it should help you out.
My grandmother would keep a clove in her mouth when she had pain in her teeth.
I had all four wisdom teeth removed at one time. I feel your pain! That crawfish boil looks amazing. The food in Louisiana is truly outstanding.
All the food here in the south is delicious. Every state has its specialties. Hard to describe how good it is. BBQ, crawfish, catfish ... lots of variations.Thanks.
You don't have to apologize for interrupting. That's the point of reactions. Just replayong the video would be redundant lol. We should be all watching for your commentary and reactions, and the origonal video for the original content.
I love when a video is popular to react to for my favorite foreigb reaction channels. You get that entertainment multiplied. I especially love that it's my state.
Laissez les bons temps rouler! Enjoy Louisiana when you get here :)
I can’t wait to get back to the great state of Louisiana in a few days. Home here I come! 😊
1. A GOOD crawfish boil is absolutely delicious. I definitely prefer mine with a good amount of spice.
2. I had ALL of my teeth removed at once (medical reasons) and was out of commission for almost 2 weeks (couldn't take "good" painkillers because of my job). So I understand. Just remember, this too shall pass. You'll be eating Biltong again before you know it.
Can't wait for y'all to actually come over here so we can see videos of what you actually experience.
It warmed my heart to hear you say you want to visit Louisiana (hopefully New Orleans or even a place more South). I was born here and have lived here over three-quarters of my life (lived in Texas for a quarter when I was younger).
I suspect you will love both States because each place has unique food (every state has unique food to be honest), atmosphere, customs, language/dialect, weather, and our greetings are so different (but it's so cute!).
Anyway, thanks for another reaction and I hope you dry socket heals quickly!
I’ve been waiting for them to try this since the first southern trip they made and it’s hilarious😂
Wisdom teeth removal suck!!!! I did it back when I was in my 20s and it was still bad.
I hope you feel better soon.
I have a smaller pick up truck and when I was getting a divorce I was interviewing lawyers. One lawyer said “Why do you need a pick up truck?”. This is after I told him that my soon to be ex husband had 2 pickup trucks and a company truck. Needless to say, as a female, I didn’t choose him as my lawyer. By the way, this was in Texas in 2016.
Over here in Long Beach Washington (state) it’s clam season. Just in time to make clam chowder the cold autumn. We also have salmon, crab, albacore tuna and oysters here too. Unfortunately no lobster. It’s a great area for seafood lovers!
Jolly is the progenitor of so much peripheral content.
I grew up in New England. We know our seafood and we do it well. But hats off to Louisiana…y’all know of what you speak. You add things that take it off in an entirely different direction but it works too. Much love. ❤👊🏼
You guys know your way around lobster and clams. Louisiana is more crawdad, shrimp, catfish.
Here where I am, though, we are a true king. Dungeonesa crab, wild caught Pacific salmon, oysters the size of your heart, all sorts of nice other fish available.
We do lack the lobsters out here though, I’ll admit that. Maine really is the best for those giant, delicious sea pinchers.
Im not from either the northeast or Louisiana, but from my prospective, the New England style is exactly that. Bland, English style cooking. But, it works with nice clean ingredients. Lobster and clams have a delicate flavor that would easily be hidden by too much seasoning. Mudbugs from the swamp are a different story. They taste like where they are from, so a strong swampy taste, even if purged for a few days. So you want strong seasonings that cover it up. The crawfish also have their own taste that is stronger than lobster, so spices tend to help accentuate it rather than cover it up.
Im not gonna lie though, when I’ve had clam chowder in New England , I dumped plenty of Louisiana hot sauce in it to give it some flavor. I am from Texas, so we have Louisiana and Mexican food influencing our tastes, so it ain’t a meal if it don’t make you sweat.
@@adamr9215 Oh man, I’m sorry you’ve only had bland seafood up here. It may not ever be as heavily spiced as Louisiana style but it contains spices!! I’m not English!! 🤣🤣🤣❤️
They have released another video from New Orleans covering Jambalaya and Pork Chops with Dressing. Take a look when you find the time and are feeling better.
I’m from south Louisiana and there’s no better place for boiled and fried seafood in the world …..it’s a must try for everyone at least once (only tourist wear gloves) lol 😂
Jono, the charred grill oysters are basically salted butter, garlic, parsley, and Parmesan over an open fire. After you eat the oyster, dip a piece of bread in the butter garlic juice out the shell. Im the real deal Louisiana boy. We boil every weekend during crawfish season.
Oh my goodness 🤤🤤🤤
Crow! I bet you realized you made a mistake watching this with your empty stomach about 9 seconds in 'eh? Lol, I'm from Canada but my maternal side were French Acadians from the East Coast who were forced down to Louisiana in the late 1700s to avoid persecution. They were to become what are Louisiana Acadians/Cajuns today. And yes, even though I live in oil-rich Alberta where Prime AAA Beef is the norm, I know my way around a kitchen thanks to my late Cajun Mimi. I was drooling too, watching this video. lol
Jono, when you and your family get over here to the USA, will you video everyone's reaction! This is the highlight of any day to watch your u tube programs! Can't hardly wait for the next one. Sending this from Winter Park, Florida (next to Orlando, FL) Steve 🇺🇸
The Blue Crab State is the State of Maryland; hard and softies. They don't taste as good anywhere else because our colder winters keep the crabs dormant. They are fat, heavy and sweet. We also have the absolute best crab cakes. We buy hard crabs by the bushel, softies by the dozen and just eat and drink beer all day long when we have crab feasts. Old Bay is made in Maryland and used in all states, including Louisiana. But, in the DMV, we don't boil seafood, we aren't trying to cover the taste with heat; we just steam it with beer, vinegar, bay leaves and Old Bay
I understand the longing for seafood, I lived by the coast and moved back home to a land locked state!!! I Miss seafood so much!
You will love it here in southern Louisiana. The food, fishing, festivals and Mardi gras. You won't want to leave
I feel for you, I had a similar experience having my lower right wisdom tooth which was growing in sideways removed about 6 years ago, in my case I ended up with nerve damage and a permanent numb spot about the size of my thumbnail along the lower right corner of my mouth, which thankfully is slowly recovering, and is now starting to get some slight sensation. p.s. I live in western Louisiana, you should be aware Crawfish season runs from about mid January - mid May most years, depending on the weather and how the harvest goes, with larger crawfish being more common in mid to late crawfish season. The popularity of boiled crawfish has been growing the last couple of decades, and you can now find boiled crawfish restaurants that do an ok job in south east Texas as well as all across south Louisiana.
The best crawfish boil is in Houston TX. Vietnamese Cajun crawfish is probably the best
i love how josh always says oh my gosh not oh my God
Louisiana girl here!!🙋🏼♀️ Please please hurry and come here and enjoy our delicious food!! You will be so welcome!!😁😁🥗🍜
I can understand your diversion to fish and chips, I’m picky when it comes to that myself.. from where it’s harvested to the type of Fish. I my parents moved us to the Florida Keys in 79 and as I grew, I found the one I loved the most was Grouper fish and chips, white meat, great flavor, my local bar had a great kitchen and served burgers, ribs, fish and chips, all so tasty, and when grouper was on the menu I would get two orders, to have with my Rum and Coke.. good times and great foof
Grouper is amazing. I live on the Texas coast and I wish I could have it more regularly. Its hard to find good restaurants that can prepare it well
@@cats400 yes that’s true, one must know how to prepare and cook the fish, I was invited to a local cookout (in the keys) and the host was doing Snapper, Yellowtail on the grill, he put the fillet into aluminum foil with fresh herbs, and lemon…. And I was just in heaven eating that fine meal
South Alabama has some really great seafood too, southern food is unbelievable good.
This video will make you hungry. Get well soon.
Just a friendly heads up, there is actually a crawfish season. Typically, later in February through the end of May. Possibly into early June. Depending on when you visit, crawfish may not be on the menus. We have done some crawfish boils here at our house in Mississippi with a number of neighbors. Nothing like a good crawfish boil with friends.
Right near me in wellfleet massachusetts there is the wellfleet oyster. Every october there is the oyster festival where the entire town essentially shuts down and gets hammered to celebrate these weird little sea critters
I love crab and craw fish with melted butter for dipping
A sincere wish to experience the whole boil. Also... ugh on the wisdom tooth thing....
As a woman from Louisiana who was brought up on Cajun food and crawfish boils, just a few hints...Crawfish season runs from March to June, so plan your trip to the States during that time. In addition, the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo in Texas runs from February 27th - March 17th, and The 2024 World's Championship Bar-B-Que Contest, is also held in Houston and is scheduled for February 22nd - 24th, 2024. The drive from New Orleans, LA to Houston, TX is approximately 5 1/2 hours, so if you start in Houston for the BBQ and Rodeo, you can make the start of Crawfish season in Louisiana a week later!!!
You are a strong man. I couldn't watch a food video if I couldn't eat. It's been months now, so I assume you have recovered.
"It's like he's hitting a bong!"
I cracked up.
1:55
I can totally understand what you're going through after having a wisdom tooth extraction, Jono
I myself had the same procedure done a few years back and I felt totally miserable afterwards, so I can absolutely relate to your experience
I hope you'll start feeling much better soon
Crawfish season in south Louisiana is mainly in the Spring peaking in March and April. You can find them in late Winter or early Summer but they’re going to be more expensive and the shells are harder to peel.
Crabs regrow their shell. What they do is have the crabs alive in a flowing aquarium. Poke a little whole in each side of the crabs back. The crab casts off its shell to regrow another and the chef throws him in the pan to fry (: Easy Peasy ...
Hoping your issues with your teeth will clear up so that you can enjoy the superb food in south Louisiana. I’m from the state capitol, Baton Rouge but now retired and living in Las Vegas. Just a friendly tip if you go to Louisiana, New Orleans is iconic and that’s where most visitors go. I would recommend visiting Baton Rouge or Lafayette as these cities offer some of the best tasting Cajun food as well as the prices are somewhat lower. Hoping you and your family make it to Cajun country and have a fantastic time there!
Oh my goodness.. the boudin balls in Lafayette will always be my biggest craving. I miss them so much!!
In Baton Rouge, there’s a service station/convenience store called Jerry Lee’s that makes and sells the best boudin I’ve ever had! It’s the place to go in the BR area for great boudin⚜️. I miss boudin since I’m now living in Vegas, the land of no boudin☹️
Jerry Lee's is incredible! The boudin and hogs head cheese are to die for!
@@TM-xr5ue oh, I forgot about the hog head cheese! How I miss Jerry Lee’s⚜️❤️
Hey dude we live in Lake Charles Louisiana which is in southwest Louisiana and we farm crawfish when they in season. Eat so much crawfish we get tired of them. Also fish, shrimp, barbecue, whatever we can cook. Would love to have y’all down for a visit
If you want to try crawfish, make sure you come in the spring.
Glad to hear you are on the mend. Wisdom tooth removal is something I wouldn’t wish on anybody.
Gotta love "Old Bay Seasoning" for seafood... Here in Virginia , that's the current dominant one used.
I Love Crawfish Boils. We go through 200lbs easy 4 people. They are so good with the spices, garlic, onion, celery, corn on cob, potatoes and boudin. So damn good. OMG KFC ain't got nothing on Finger Licking Good!!
Our Parents would take all us 8 children crabbing when we lived in NJ . We would come home with so many bushels of blue crab, and we feasted like Kings
Soft shell crab is amazing and funky because you eat the mustard(liver) which most people don’t eat
Here in Louisiana, we're not known for much of anything except food and outdoor stuff like hunting and fishing. We also have a ton of festivals that we make up so we have an excuse to have fun, Mardi Gras is only one of them.
We take pride in our food and heritage and is the most unique area in the country.
New Orleans is full of tourists and full of tourist traps. Skip the crowds and come to Lafayette Louisiana. Spend some time in Louisiana. Do some fishing, tour our wetlands, and have a great time.
Here is my Crawfish Ettoufee Recipe... You can substitute Shrimp
Crawfish (A 2 Fay) Etouffee
2 lbs. peeled crawfish tails 1/4 lb. butter
1/2 cup chopped celery 1 cup chopped onions
1/2 cup chopped bell pepper 2 cups cold water
2 teaspoons corn starch Salt, Black and Red pepper to taste
1/4 cup green onion tops and parsley, chopped
2 tablespoons crawfish fat (yellow substance in crawfish head) - Can use Shrimp (peeled)
Season crawfish tails with salt and pepper and set aside. Melt butter or oil in heavy pot. Add onions, bell pepper, and celery; cook until onions are wilted - stirring constantly. Add crawfish fat, 1 1/2 cups water and crawfish tails. Bring to a boil and cook over slow heat for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally. Dissolve corn starch into 1/2 cup of water, add to mixture. Add green onion tops and parsley - cook another 10 minutes. Let set a few minutes. Serve over cooked rice. Serves 4.
Sorry for your pain, glad you got it sorted, tooth pain is consuming
Louisiana has the best spiced food in the world. ❤
If you don't like the fish and chips in the UK, try southern fried Catfish with Hush puppies in the southern US. It is a whole different experience.
Yes, sooo damn good 🤤
You should check out snapping turtle its has 6 or 7 different meats under the shell. You have to keep them in clean water for about a week to get the mud out of them. You have to change the water every day.
You can find this kind of food in Houston, TX - it is close to Louisiana.
And not every state sells this stuff but you can trap them eat them. You have to keep them in clean water for if you get them out of the lakes too clean them out.
The largest fresh water Crawfish in Oregon up on the Alsea River at Waldport on the Coast and we catch them by hand during Spring and Summertimes, dang they almost size of Lobsters! We got the biggest and best Crawfish Feast right here in beautiful State of Oregon heck with Louisiana ours bigger and better... and they're free, just having fun in water and feast later😊
From Texas, you want to Lake Charles for crawfish, down along the Gulf. I don't know when you are going, but if it is soon, crawfish aren't in season, and you'd be getting imported Chinese crawfish. Crawfish season starts in the spring.
Here in Louisiana, alot of the farmers do their crawfish on a plot of land, and then after they have fertilized that plot they will grow rice on that plot. Its a great system. Come to Louisiana when you can, we'll hook you up!
MMM!..Crawfish in season! Peace, Love!!
I LOVE Cajun food, especially gumbo or étouffée.
Try clove oil from the pharmacy. Apply around the affected area with a q tip. Works miracles.
Looking forward to you coming to the states and enjoying the food!
Daww! I hope so much that you are feeling better! Please come here for a visit. We would love to have you.
If you ever visit Southern California, head to Orange County, Little Saigon. You will have your choice of at least 20 restaurants specializing in crawfish and at least 20 other restaurants specializing in all types of seafood.
You need to hit Texas & Louisiana around late April. Crawfish season will be in full swing and hurricane season hasn't kicked in yet. And if you make it as far as the Baton Rouge area, go to Sugarfield Spirits and Jerry Lee's!
I'm a Louisiana girl!!! Yes, our food has a completely different flavor. If youre going to Texas and you want some really good Louisiana cuisine, try going to Lafayette. It's not far across the southern part of the Texas/Louisiana state line.
I use to drive between Pensacola,FL. and southeast TX quite a bit and always stopped at Best Stop in Scott,LA to get their boudin took take home. Lucky a couple stores here in my area in TX carry it now. So good.
That place is only 4 minutes from my place in New Orleans Louisiana. Really good food
Try Lafayette, Louisiana. Food is AMAZING!! Cajun country all the way.
Jolly went to Salvo's in Belle Chase, LA...very good place to get crawfish..❤. "The Crawfish Capital Of The World" is Breaux Bridge, LA, about an hour and a half from Orange, TX heading east on Interstate 10 (I-10), they have a crawfish festival during crawfish season in late is during the first week of May. The prime time for them during season runs from February thru mid-May...
When you come to Louisiana, try some Seafood Gumbo. You can also get it in Southeast Texas.
There is a lot of waste weight in shellfish. When she says people eat 5 pounds, she's referring to the weight of the entire creatures. After you're done you have pounds of husks left over that will soon become 'high smelling'
This video made me salivate too ive only gotten to experience this once in my life and I'm prayingbi get to again one day
I feel ya on the tooth thing...seriously. I had all 4 removed at once, two dry sockets, chips of tooth finding their way to the surface and coming out, allergic reaction to the antibiotics that landed me in the ER. Shot of Demerol, and then I was in recovery mode feeling like crap for a week playing video games and eating ramen. Worst. Ever.
I hope you can make to the US! We would welcome you with open arms!! You would enjoy Sir!
So very sorry about the dry socket, I had four at the same time. The pain lasted 8 months! Lesson learned # one: do not use a straw with a shake or ANYTHING....It's A guaranteed trip to pain town. # 2: pain pills are usually a waste of time. Ibuprofen works better with teeth. I had to go in every other day and have the sockets packed with the really good stuff for 8 months. After the packing was done, I was still in pain so I used oil of cloves and a Q-tip about every hour. Oil of cloves is amazing but it tastes horrible. It does stop the pain right away. I'm not a doctor but my surgeon told me about the cloves as a last resort. He was as out of his mind as I was, he couldn't get the pain under control. Hope you feel better. Lord, that was a horrible memory!
I had a similar experience with my wisdom teeth. The only thing I could find to consume that didn’t taste like the medicated gauze was milk, and I’m lactose intolerant.
Rest and get better!
everywhere along gulf coast texas and louisiana the seafood is amazing and hole in wall places end up being better then fancy places
Crawfish season starts in November
Gulf area in Texas does cajun seafood like that too. So, you can get both here.
Sorrento, Louisiana, here close to Baton Rouge. We would love to have you. Hope to see you around
When I watched their video, I thought about you. I was like "Jono would love this." I watch too much youtube.
5:06 man, I could feel your pain. I made the same mistake when I had two of my wisdom teeth removed.
Feel you on the wisdom teeth removal, i had to get 3 out. I can't remember the days after it clearly because they had me on soooo many pain killers since the gas didn't work during extraction. Soup, icecream, mash potatoes and applesauce.
Jono,
I feel for you, I had a tooth turn sideways and pushing on a nerve, and yes I had it pulled, and I used a salt water mixture to rinse and spit it also keeps the socket moist and clean. Look it up and try it. Oh, the best over the counter pain medication in my opinion is BC POWDER arthritis strength.
I go to the Texas coast for vacation ( port Aransas) and I eat seafood every day twice a day.
Jono, if you removed a secondary molar don't replace it. Primary molars do the grinding and contact with the other set of teeth. Secondary molars not so much, and trying to keep them clean (even if they are prosthesis) prove to be daunting. Simply pack the missing space in with bone dust, suture up the gum, and move on with life.
In Texas don’t forget the Mexican food (Tex-Mex), try street tacos from a Food Truck
Cajun Boudain is glorious .
I'm from Maryland and this is also my style of seafood, except that I like my oysters raw on the half shell with a little bit of horseradish and cocktail sauce. Sorry, but the best blue crabs are from the Chesapeake Bay.
Now what these guys need to do is get some true good seafood from up here in the Pacific Northwest. Alaskan wild caught salmon, giant oysters that are just awesome grilled on full shell, dipped in garlic butter. Nice, delicious large leg Dungeoness crab, all sorts of delicious freshwater fish species like trout, sturgeon, all sorts. There’s not much better than pulling a nice, large rainbow trout out of a lake with your own two hands and fishing rod, prepare and flour up, fried up in a nice cast iron skillet…unless, of course, it’s a nice, dark red salmon pulled right out of the Columbia delta, seasoned up and citrus added…baked to a nice, flaky perfection.
If you fillet a salmon up, fry it up in a skillet…let me say, the nice crispy skin that results, they call it the bacon of the sea. Plus, fish like salmon, swordfish, tuna, mahi mahi, they’re all nutritious foods, good Omega 3 essential fatty acids, high protein, B vitamins, iron, and fish has some of the lowest amounts of saturated fats and triglycerides of meats.
I’ve gotten my mouth watering now…
I live in Perdido Key, FL. You and your lovely fiance are welcome to come here.
No Sucking... lol. Hope your good and didn't pull the clot. Speedy recovery.
Plenty of places like this in Texas. Especially southeast Texas like Houston/Galveston area and further east toward the boarder with Louisiana.
