Looks good, Dave.

With those thicker filets, tying might make more sense than using a toothpick or skewer. Just takes a few seconds more, but you can maintain the shape better.
 
Scrod actually just refers to a smaller size fillet, and is almost always whitefish.
 
Which reflects another change. As recently as the 1960s, scrod was baby cod (however that was defined). But, of course, once the cod fishery ran into trouble that had to change.

   Hi Hoser!

   That looks so delicious!  Thanks for sharing your recipe too...I love the touch of  herbs de provence too (delicious!) 

     Man, I'm actually feeling like cooking more than going out tonight after seeing your dish again.  My wife and I are going out for a five course seafood and truffle tasting.  As you can imagine...my feelings of cooking must be pretty strong!  LOL.


    Again, thanks for sharing...Hoser!

   Okay, sticking with the fish and seafood theme today we had Lobster Ravioli in a Vietnamese Shellfish Broth.  There was 1/4 lobster tail in each homemade ravioli.  The bowl was prepared with a truffled olive oil on the bottom.  I had topped it with some fresh basil, fresh sliced jalapeno and some sriracha caviar that I made.  Flavors and textures turned out pretty good.

Good looking plates, Dan.
 
How'd you make the Siracha caviar?

   Thanks for the kind words Rod and Brook!

  The sriracha "caviar" was made using agar, you can see a recipe/procedure here.  It's a pretty easy process and not difficult.  It can add some nice texture and flavors to dishes (fruits are good too).  Next I gotta get some fresh oysters and put these little sriracha "caviar" on there Big smile 

   The agar itself isn't all that expensive.  One packet will do a pretty good amount of "caviar", I find a half recipe is more than enough for small patches.  Making foams and airs are pretty neat too.

Not sure how I missed that last post, Dan - but that is some very beautiful work there! Those shrimp look perfect, and I'm also loving the lobster ravioli. Very nice to see what can be done with just a liuttle attention to detail!

  Thanks for the kind words Margi!  I certainly hope you have a wonderful season as well.  When I made this one it was actually a recreation of one of my wife's favorite dishes...then I added a little something extra.

   Enjoy the day!

  Hey Tas!  I hope you and your family are having a wonderful summer!  Thank you for the kind words...Both my wife and I were happy with the way this one turned out.  I still have to make Brook's potato scaled fish! 

take care!

  Here's one inspired by MarkR's post where he made Louisiana Crab Cakes and Blackened Redfish.  

   What I'll be making with this is a Blackened Red Snapper, served over grits with a File' Gumbo sauce and Fried Okra on the side.
