Hai gegessen

i have never tried shark before
the other day at the Fish Market i saw it
it was local Southern California shark
either Thresher or Bonito

it was actually pretty good
not a very strong fish flavor
more on the mild side, white lean meat
and very soft, i guess is the freshness too
that made it so soft, the Fish Market has
really fresh fish to go



I cooked with a non-chef proof recipe
olive oil, chopped garlic, fresh ground white pepper
and sea salt, on a pan fried about 5 minutes on each side
it was easy, quick and tasty
for side dish, some grape tomatoes with
home-made dressing of balsamic vinegar, olive oil and rosemary



now i guess the only concern on eating shark
is that apparently has high levels of mercury
too bad 'cause i really liked it and it's very affordable
