I don’t know about other people but when the fish ain’t fresh… i know it immediately. It really upsets me.. because that piece of salmon gotten from Superstore.. wasn’t cheap at all. And knowing that it wasn’t fresh.. i definitely cannot let my kid eat it right..? just in case.. something doesn’t goes well with the tummy. We had bought it the same day we baked it.. and the fish came out really fishy..! what a waste of $$$$$ ..!! I should have warned the man not to get the fish from Superstore.. because their fish is never good.

Lobsters is definitely no stranger for us living in Nova Scotia .. because we are a fishing community here. Little did i know that at St Barts, we had one of the best lobsters in casual dining and at very affordable prices. We were at St. Barts villa rentals , many years ago.. and i remember this restaurant located at the beach introduced by a local there. In fact, we liked that place so much.. we revisited many times.. before the end of our vacation. It’s at Flamand Beach and i know you will love it too. If you want the address to it .. leave me a comment.

Fresh trouts fried immediately after catching them. So fresh.. and so good. My mother-in-law said.. if you want the skin to be crispy .. roll them into flour .. just a bit. It was really good..!! nothing beats having fresh trouts. My in-laws kept offering me more.. but i didn’t wanna eat too much.. because my father-in-law had taken a whole afternoon to fish for them.
This was how it was fried.. pretty simple eh..?? and no oil everywhere. .and the fish had no fishy smell on them. And my mother-in-law deboned the fish for me.. not much any woman can asked for eh..?

My father-in-law went fishing and fished this trouts for dinner last Sunday.. just because we were going to visit. They were fried immediately.. and they were really good. You can’t get fish any fresher than this. I had thought about making sushi with it… but i’m sure the in-laws would eat them.. if they were raw.. muahahhaha!!
See how huge they are..!! yummy..!!!
There was a small one too. And yes.. we ate it immediately.

Although I lived in a fishing town, seafood is just as expensive if not more. These 2 pieces of salmon cost me about $8.00, by my standard for home cooked meal.. this is considered expensive .. but can’t helped it.. coz’ the brat needed her omega 3 fats. Baking it was simple and fast. 12 mins at 350 degree oven.. and it’s ready to be eaten.. i put some butter on it.. and some paprika on it.. and that’s about all. We donch usually put so much butter .. but the brat wanted to help and I let her. Also I have another recipe for Salmon With Pineapple Orange Relish but that will be for another time eh.

When we were younger, we couldn’t afford to eat lobsters, so what my mum did was she bought us crayfish instead since they are a fraction of the cost for buying lobsters. Plus they are do look like small lobsters, so when we were kids and didn’t know any better, we would boast and tell our school friends that we had lobsters for dinner. My friends must have thought i was either boasting again.. or we were rich.. hahha!!
Now anyone in United States can enjoy authentic Cajun crawfish as they can get shipped and delivered fresh to your doorstep. We still loved seafood alot and with my father-in-law fishing all the time for the best catch, I know he will appreciate some of these freshwater crustaceans. Whether you want them live, frozen or boiled, they are available all year round. Of course the quality of these crayfish is one of the best and if you must know why we loved it so much, it is because for years now, my mum kept telling us that it is an excellent source of protein, plus really low in fat. So women out there need not feel guilty at all about eating them. Eat as many as you like is what my mum used to say.. and never grow fat.
