A Roe By Any Other Name…
February 1, 2009
In an ideal situation, it would be nice that pregnant (?) fish caught would be returned to the sea to spawn, thereby increasing the fish population. However, even if I protest the less than ideal situation, the fact still remains that fish will still be sold in the market even if it is pregnant. Having justified my purchase of alimusang fish roe, I present this:
Alimusang is a close relative of the catfish. Eating the cooked roe is like eating egg yolks. The roe sticks to your teeth and has a gummy feel which I like. What I usually do is to stir fry the roe with garlic, onions, tomatoes, and some grated ginger, adding salt and pepper to taste. Quick and yummy.
