White Christmas

I was lucky enough to catch a white sea bass the Monday before Christmas. Perfect timing to put it on ice, drive it up north and enjoy it with friends and family.

Night 1 - Christmas Eve:
White Sea Bass Sushi: maki roll, inside-out maki roll, nigiri, and hand roll

Night 2 and 3 - Christmas Day and Day After Christmas:
Rack of White Sea Bass

Days 4-6:
White Sea Bass Ceviche

Thank you to all the people who helped make this fish happen, it’s been a while in the making. Merry christmas and happy new year. I can’t wait to see what 2016 has in store!

Wow, looks good. What did you put in the ceviche besides the wsb, tomatoes and mangos?

Congrats Mikey on the nice WSB. I am still kicking myself for not having gone out that day, it seems that several people I know had great luck landing a trophy WSB. The pictures are great and the table fare looks awesome. Tight Lines, Mark

Good job Mikey! Beauty. Suggest you flash freeze your wsb sashimi, I'm just saying.

Great job Mikey. I love it when their dorsal fins stick up like that for the photo op. You'll be eating well this new year!

Jim,
Why do you suggest flash freezing the WSB first? i had it on ice for 2 days, does that help?

Hey Mikey, nothing better looking or tasting than a fresh wsb filet, that's for sure. But croakers def have worms. I don't go looking for them because...well I just don't want to go through the disappointment mentally. Belly/anal areas, esp. All of mine is cooked anyways. IDK whether icing for a couple of days kills all...maybe someone else can respond. Good job brotha. Jim
