As much as I love fresh black cod when we get it in our delivery from Siren Fish Co., I wasn’t up for doing anything elaborate with it. Plus, it’s so delicious, buttery and fresh, it really doesn’t need much of anything to make it a satisfying meal. I decided to totally wing it. Plus [...]

We went simple again for the rest of the crab we got from Siren. We already had baguette toasts made, so we did these as mini-sandwiches instead of big ones. It’s very easy – a minimal salad made of crab, peppers, fennel fronds and oil shows off the fresh, clean tasting crab. I love the [...]
We got some fabulous fresh dungeness crab from Siren SeaSA this week – already picked and packaged up, ready to use. It’s my favorite kind of crab, that’s for sure. We decided we had enough crab to make a couple of things. Sometimes we’ll just snack on stuff that’s in the kitchen instead of making [...]
My Best of 2012 list was long and difficult to narrow down. Larry and I had a spirited discussion about what made the cut and what didn’t. At the end, we were left with eleven items that needed to be on our final favorites list. There was a lot of good food last year, though. [...]
Our Siren SeaSA delivery this week was black cod – no complaints here. It’s always delicious: buttery, mild, quick-cooking. I think our favorite way to prepare black cod so far was this Mahogany Black Cod – more involved, but it was so good. And just the fish could be prepared without all of the extra [...]
This is a recipe from a very old issue of Fine Cooking, published seventeen years ago. I’ve made two other recipes from this particular article on making a crust for fish, and both were really good. This one is, too. We got salmon from our seafood CSA. Normally we do a simple Asian-influenced marinade and [...]
We got black gill rockfish for the first time from our seafood CSA. Line-caught, from Ft. Bragg. I knew I wanted a simple preparation – this is a mild white fish, and ultra fresh. A classic meunière was the first thing that came to mind. A light dredge in flour and seasoning, then the fillets [...]
Pacific sand dabs: another new, first time fish for us with our latest Siren SeaSA delivery. I’m somewhat knowledgeable when it comes to fish varieties, but I admit, I had no idea what sand dabs were. I imagined some sort of mollusk, like a sand dollar. I wondered, can you eat the insides of sand [...]
We got a pound of perfect, fresh salmon from our Siren SeaSA share this week. I could probably do something a little more interesting with salmon, but to be honest, when the fish is this fresh and high quality, it really doesn’t need a fancy preparation. In fact, I cooked the fish in our little [...]
This is barely a recipe – it’s more of a general technique that can be adjusted to suit the season and your mood. I didn’t use flounder – there wasn’t any at the farmer’s market. I asked for something comparable, and I think they gave me sole. It’s a slightly firm, mild white fish – [...]
