That LOOKS super DELISH...

The collar and the cheeks are the best part.....

Yani...

Try Cooking the Fish whole like a suckling pig....
Rub it with salt, pepper and oil....and your favorite Spices..
the key is to let it sit for 12 hours before cooking it...so the skin dries out and cooks up supper sexy....

Yani,

I love that your recipes reflect simplicity as true mediterranean food should.....use the best ingredients and let them speak for themselves. No matter how often I strive for that in my own kitchen, I am unfailingly driven to complexity. More is not always better, in fact, it usually isn't.

Thank you for another great contribution.

Post script, I love that this dish is dedicated to Sharon....a plating/presentation idea is to mound the cherry tomatoes on top of the yellow tail head, effectively making it a ginger. Just a thought.

Nice! But is it absolutely mandatory to use a cross-eyed yellow?

Very nice Yani.

Your cooking posts are as good or better than your catching posts.
