Chicago Seafood Update

    Chicago Seafood Update                     May 31 , 2011       Specials: The Copper River Sockeye Salmon have reached epic catch levels, but with the holiday weekend we won’t be resupplied until mid-week. Prices then should be quite reasonable for fillet and whole fish. Weather has put a damper on most other fisheries across the United States and Canada so selection has been limited. Stock items should be readily available, but special catches are scarce. That being said we will have something new here in the form of Golden Tilefish, from Florida . Tilefish are found right at the continental shelf and are a deepwater predator with a voracious diet of small fish as well as crab, lobster and even squid. The filets will be large being cut from 5-10 lb fish should average 3-5 lbs each. Tilefish is similar to snapper and grouper and the beautiful ...

Bill Fish - Marlin and Sword

Image
    This weeks fresh catch. ( Istiophoridae ) From pristine Pacific waters we have nice cuts of Marlin Loin. This wild fish is a rare treat. Similar in cut and form to swordfish loin, Marlin is a bit more delicate in taste and tenderness. Thin cuts are ideal for cooking a la plancha or in a similar style. Thicker steaks can stand up to the grill and even work well with bold seasonings like blackening or spicy tomato sauces.  Marlin is wonderful if slightly undercooked, but will hold up to longer cooking. Priced just below swordfish it is a great alternative and frankly is very successfully featured seafood special that delivers high margins and lower food cost.   Sword, very nice mid Atlantic Domestic fish . We just have a few cases of fresh and firm Swordfish.

    Fried Soft-Shell Crabs with Ramps This recipe appears in: The Young Man & the Sea: Recipes & Crispy Fish Tales from Esca by David Pasternack and Ed Levine, Artisan, 2007.   Serves 4   I'm very particular whom I buy my soft-shell crabs from, and you should be, too. I get mine from Tommy Crab. When you buy soft-shell crabs they shouldn't be moving around. Their backs should feel soft, like a baby's bottom. I like soft-shells fried, as they are here, or grilled. When I've sautéed them, too often they've come out oily.   8 medium or 10 small young ramps 1/2 cup plus 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil 2 cloves garlic, thinly sliced Sea salt Freshly ground black pepper 1 1/2 cups Wondra 1 cup cornstarch 1 cup whole milk 8 small to medium soft-shell crabs, cleaned by your fishmonger 1 lemon, thinly sliced Sherry Vinaigrette (see below)   Clean the ramps by cutting off the root ends, and cutting away the top leaves, leaving...
