Upgraded the lunchroom at work again



Seems like a decent little skillet for ~16 bucks?



I did not grill up the mack in the interests of friendly coworker relations



Was pretty drat good, but honestly I think I kinda like polar/TJ's kips better?

Porthos brand portuguese style cod ("Bacalhau") on saltines. It's a folded up fillet with the skin on packed in soy oil, garlic and onions. How can something that looks so slimy be so tough and dry. The garlic and onion dont come through in the flavor and all you get is fishiness but not in a good way. 2/10

I made fisherman's eggs with KOs. But then, also the temperature shock from cracking in eggs cracked my baking dish. :(

Still delicious.



Are you supposed to finish the eggs outside of the oven? Or cook the dines in the oven and then pull out the dish and finish the eggs only outside of the oven? Either way, apparently the dish also wasn't hot enough to cook the eggs so I had to put it back in for a few minutes.

The eggs spend some time in the oven and some out. Check the op for deets.

Get a pyrex dish for a replacement.

Those Polars are a fantastic deal for what you get and are my go-to Kippers. Kroger just upped the cost of the Beach Cliffs I normally eat by 20 cents meaning the difference between the two is now only 50 cents. Thinkin the kippers may be worth an extra ha'buck

My co-workers are disgusted at the thought of 'dines straight from the tin so I made sure to leave a tin at the office's shared table to remind them of their inferior tastes :coolfish:

You need some pyrex or corningware or their generic equivalent.

Can pyrex really handle being pre-heated to 500, having cool/room temperature dines thrown in, heated back up, cold eggs thrown in, and heated again? It seems like that's too much shock. But I'm not a materials scientist, what do I know?

You're welcome. Now you get to feel twice as grizzled because you're using cast iron to cook stinky fish.

Actual real Pyrex, the old stuff made from borosilicate glass? Yes, definitely.

The new stuff made after Corning licensed the name out to some divested subsidiary, which is made from ordinary soda-lime glass and has the same lovely thermal expansion coefficient as regular glass? Possibly. Sometimes. Sometimes not.

Got an amazon pantry free shipping and had some space in my box and said gently caress it I'm going to finally try some sardines. Do they pair better with whiskey (knobb creek) or beer (stone IPA)? Going to do try the OP suggestion of crackers and hot sauce. That egg dish looks really good I might try that next time.

Trip report: Very fishy, reminds me of Yellow tail sushi. Pretty good. Now I assume I eat a bunch of this develop a pallet and in a few years take this back and say it tastes nothing like that.

I have a separate cast iron skillet for fish stuff. I mean, you can pick them up from a charity store for five bucks (the 'net is full of instructions on making a beaten up old skillet look like new, the things are literally indestructible) and get to frying/baking dad treats the Real Way. (Many dishes really benefit from the skillet's heat retaining qualities, fisherman's eggs is one of them!)

Never use your fish skillet for anything else, though, the taste has stuck on it the first time and will not go away without a good dremeling. :eng101:

Thank you again for the 'dines. You are right that the peppercorns are annoying but the fish size is preferable for getting on a cracker.

Couldn't find suitable sardines so I got some sort of Japanese smelt.





They're like all roe inside and pretty fishy, but not bad. They seemed like they would be pretty good deep fried.

Looks great! Did you gut them or just go at them whole? We used to do smelt runs in Northern Michigan and do a quick gutting, and deep fry. They were basically fish french fries.

I grilled and ate them whole. No problems from not gutting them.
