Lenguada fish
What is the English name for the Spanish Lenguada. I had some last night and thought it was good, but the flesh was a little mushy. I prefer a
firmer flesh. Maybe it was the way it was prepared.

If it was frozen, thawed, refrozen several times, the flesh of any fish will become "mushy" when cooked. Maybe this was the case in what you were
served.

Lenguado = flounder (halibut)
Bay of Conception halibut..good table fish.
Alaska's Cook Inlet halibut...better table fish. (this was a 'chicken')
Some Alaskan 'barn doors'
Lenguado 'cheek' prices in states: (Pike's Market, Seattle)
Like beacbum1A said, frozen fish can become mushy. Fish is best cooked fresh.
I do what the voices in my tackle box tell me.

I love Lenguado. I just bought a couple of deep fryers and I'll bet I've cooked around 300 pounds of it in the last few weeks. I'm experimenting with
batter.
Anyone have a batter recipe to share? I'll try anything.

Hey Shari
I still don't know how to post pictures on this board. Do you still have a picture of my 44 lb Halbiut that I caught last October? If so, can you
post it for these folks?
Thanks
Howard

when I lived on Vancouver Island, the natives always served halibut that was soooo delicious....here is how they (and I) prepare it. First, cut the
halibut into pieces about 1-2" wide and about 6" long...then rub mustard into the fillet, then do the shake and bake bag thing with flour with
whatever spices you like, garlic salt, pepper etc...then deep fry in a fry pan till golden.

Notice the rocky shoreline. Most fish from beaches. I can't remember if we let this one go.
