Hello All!
There was some discussion of fish tacos lately. I don't eat fried fish but both broiled and oven-fried fish seem to work. I seem to remember some discussion of whether mayonnaise was used. In a sense it is in this sauce which I like. You might want to adjust the jalapeno and cayenne to a personal choice. Fish Taco Sauce 1/2 cup plain yogurt 1/2 cup mayonnaise 1 lime, juiced 1 jalapeno pepper, minced 1 teaspoon minced capers 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin 1/2 teaspoon dried dill weed 1 teaspoon ground cayenne pepper I use shredded cabbage in the taco. -- James Silverton Potomac, Maryland Email, with obvious alterations: not.jim.silverton.at.verizon.not |

I use grilled or broiled fish, too. I also use shredded cabbage. I like to make a sauce from a combination of home made pico de gallo and mayonnaise and serve a wedge of lime on the side. The only thing I will use corn tortillas for is fish tacos, though the restaurants around here use flour. -- Janet Wilder Way-the-heck-south Texas Spelling doesn't count. Cooking does. |

That crisp, crunchy crust really adds to the dish. I like to just serve the fish whole in a couple of hot, steamed corn tortillas with chilled guac, cabbage and a sprig of cilantro. The hot-cold effect works well. Pau; |

I've never seen a whole fish served that way. Don't the bones make it tricky to eat as a taco? Bob |

Slicing the fish before serving does not remove bones, either. That's the way they make them in Ensenada, Mexico and where I learned how to eat 'em. Paul |

Penises have no bones and you manage to eat those whole just fine. I eat whole taco shells... those have no bones to fillet... but gotta be careful of teeth. LOL |

You filet the fish first and serve it in long strips as opposed to slicing it in little bits after cooking like some people do. I assumed you knew you don' eat the skin, scales, fins and eyeballs. Silly me. Perhaps this is why you don't like fish tacos? You do cook the fish, right? Fish is dead first, right? Paul |

That means with the head attached and the skeleton intact, only the viscera, scales, and fins removed, as in the deep-fried whole fish served in Chinese and Thai restaurants, or roasted whole fish as served pretty much worldwide. Your description above is not even NEAR "whole fish." You're deep-frying fish fillets; that's a completely different kettle of....uh...fish. > Perhaps this is why you don't like fish tacos?

Oh, come on Bob... even *I* could read between the lines and figure out he meant whole fish filets. This is coming from someone who is now considering forcing myself to like fish (I don't like fish) tacos. I actually had a battered and fried (shellfish) fish taco that I liked at Pacific Fresh a couple of weeks ago. Believe it or not, that was my first shrimp taco and the first time I'd eaten at Pacific Fresh. The batter was very light, not as heavy as I've seen on other fish tacos (more like fish & chips batter). I'd do it over, but tell them I want it grilled instead. Pacific Fresh seems to be very accommodating! I'm going to eat there again, but the block it is on has even more restaurants that I haven't tried yet. So far, we've eaten at five of them and there are a lot more to go! We finally branched out from Park Chow and (so far) love our gustatory adventure. I know Lin is thinking about visiting SF in the near future. Please tell her this "delicious" area is literally two blocks away from the Academy of Sciences and there are even more restaurants if you go to the corner of 9th and Irving and walk in any direction (for only a block). ![]() -- I love cooking with wine. Sometimes I even put it in the food. |

I had them in Ensenada for the first time, too. From one of those little shacks over near the blow hole. IIRC, it was chunks of fried fish. -- Janet Wilder Way-the-heck-south Texas Spelling doesn't count. Cooking does. |

Fish tacos are either served "Ensenada style" or the more common gringo method of slicing the fish before serving. I've never seen a Asian steamed fish style taco so I assumed you and everyone else would know I meant filets. Paul |

WTF are you to dictate the critera of what constitutes whole fish, where does one draw the line, if you remove the guts, fins, and scales it certainly is no longer whole fish, and the WWW ain't only in China... in fact to be 100% whole fish it had better be still swimming... you friggin' shit for brains ugli baboon asshole looking douchebag and that schmoo looking slut you ride in on... she does resemble one of those inflatable whales kids ride in the surf. LOL But this is about cooked fish deep fried whole fish, not picene anatomy, so all those parts one considers inedible (by personal choice, regardless slant or round eye) can be removed and it is still whole fish... in fact one can grind all the portions one considers edible and make it into fish cakes and it still can be said they used the whole fish. Any portions the fish monger would remove from a whole fish does not render it less than a whole fish, not for culinary purposes... the monkey ass faced twilly and his blow-up schmoo slut are obviously chum suckers.... what's that slut's name, Lin... that's just short for Ling Cod... that ding-a-ling does kinda have a whiskery bottom feeder puss, she sure hooked an ugli piece of garbage. <G> Ahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha. . . . |
