An idiot's guide to pickled pike (and the best tasting)

[CatDaddy]

I always find it amazing how the vinegar turns the meat snow white.....Also, I forgot that the fish swells when in the salt water. I was surprised to see how full the Costco-sized pickle jar had gotten. Had to put some of the Sam's club jalapenos in a Tupperware and steal the other large jar from the fridge.

Stage 2:

just do everything in an uncovered plastic tub next time - way easier and the pieces get better and more even exposure because you can dredge them readily.

Of course at the end you put the rinsed/drained pieces in jars and top off with the spiced/boozed pickling brine per usual.

"The fish is actually cooked by whatever acid (lime juice, lemon juice) you use to marinate. In a process called denaturation the structure of the protein unfolds and ceases to function as normal."

The acid is doing the unfolding - instead of the heat we're used to observing. Love me some ceviche - which is the same deal.

My wifes gets mad when I have a few beers in the garage...anyone else have that problem.

Remember that FBO post about our friends wife being uptight about him having garage beers. Was playing off of that.

There was an older guy from my hometown who would deep fry pickled herring. I don’t remember it being good or not. But it has me wondering if anyone tried the same with pickled pike?

I’m going to preemptively pardon myself from inventing it if not. I enjoy pickled pike and fried pike nuggets just fine.

got a particular variety/style you prefer? shrimp, fish, octopus, squid?

stuff is so clean/fresh gastronomically speaking - hard to explain

keep your eyes open for ceviche negro - it's absolutely incredible

here's the story behind recado negro - the ingredient that makes ceviche negro taste like nothing I've ever tried. It's basically burnt chiles and corn tortillas - burnt meaning black (negro).



I ordered it not knowing what is was - I like to do that on occasion.

I couldn't believe how different it was (sauce kinda had the subtle flavor of old maids when you eat popcorn). WTF?

I went back a couple nights later and paid the chef $20 to come out to and make it for my family (Cozumel) while my daughter translated and I videoed. Ha ha. It was great - he felt like a star. It was awesome and now I know how to make it myself. : )

I was driving through town sober as a judge at 3:00 in the morning and I could hear a roaring car engine from a long ways away . Turned out to be a drunk asleep in front of the bar and his foot had the throttle smashed wide open , big bare spot around his car where it melted the ice. I had to argue to get him in my car to give him a ride home only a couple miles out of town and as soon as we got close to his place he said, let me out and opened the door and tried to bail out. I grabbed him and pulled him back in and then he started swinging at me, I was blocking punches with one hand . Got him home and on the front step when his wife met us at the door and started chewing my ass. I tried to explain the situation but she was impossible to reason with. "no good deed goes unpunished"

I forgot to mention that while she was chewing my ass she was also trying to hit me and him both while I was trying to hold him up and ducking and he was trying to hit me at the same time. There's nothing worse than being sober and trying to reason with drunk mad people.

Do a few ride-alongs: Not a fan of the current/persistent anti-LEO theme on here. Not a fan of communism and not a fan of pot: Not a fan of drunk, cuffed, leaping, bison in stature "native" women and calling for a Ward Co. disinterested "native" deputy for assistance: Tell you what: Down South; if the deputy showing up was fucking "green" the perp was in for a bad time on my/our Word. The population of MAFB housing is larger than my hometown. I've found "natives" share the same "protection" as women. The demand for slavery was dumb shit. Bye Bye DEI.

In my 24yrs; the worst "fights" I had were with 3 females. I wanted to shoot every gd one of them: All up here. MAFB used to be the Island of Misfit Retards from urban America. "Latino" and "hiphop" night were especially fun. I'm sure it's improved: Couldn't carry pepper as it would freeze; afraid to employ the ASP under the umbrella of obvious "Milley" type overhead: My last three years I made damn sure I was on leave for New Year and the 4th. Women use the Gentleman Code as a shield and weapon. They bite in many ways: Two libtard "whites"; one "native": Fun.

Why not pike? (yuck--fish/shrimp etc are meant to be breaded and deep fried):
