Arowana As Dish

[le patron]

people have to eat, if they are found in local bodies of water and there is need of food, im absolutely fine with it. this doesnt necessarily mean i dislike arowanas, i love them, but people's well being is more important to me

There's a guy here in Toronto who cooked up an asian aro. He is a member here also. The aro I think had jumped and hit its head and died. Instead of throwing it out he ate it!

I would try it. We(americans) eat fish that we also keep as pets in tanks. Don't see a difference here at all.

Now the last pic looks nasty, is that it's eye.

Looks like they dug out the eyeball and shoved a snow pea in the socket.I wonder what kind of sauce that is.

LOL hell no, you joking? We chinese believe if you eat the eye of the fish, your own eyes will benefit from it. That is the ACTUAL eye of the arowana.

I dont have the best vision so I may have to try it,now what about that sauce.

(Grandma's recipe) Steam the fish, then take soya sauce and "fry" it. When its hot, throw in some ginger and leeks ( sliced leeks into long strips, same thing with ginger). When you feel you can smell the ginger and leeks really good, then pour it on top of your steamed fish. A tip: Stick some sliced lemons in the fish where the cut is to gut them is. It gives you a really fresh lemony scent.
