David Chang Posted May 16, 2023 Report Share Posted May 16, 2023 bought a stonefish today. probably the most venomous fish in the market. my wife makes soup out of it (medicinal properties she says...🤷) anyway, it tastes like a firm monkfish. best when steamed with ginger and scallion. but if you don't take out the deadly poison barbs and skin, it will probably kill you. but i'm sure the old lady with the rusty cleaver knows what she's doing..😇 👀  2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyrus Posted May 16, 2023 Report Share Posted May 16, 2023 Somehow the element of danger mixed with difficulty always makes the food that much more attractable. I'd like some Rattlesnake, but there's none around here and my reflexes ain't what they use to be. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Chang Posted May 17, 2023 Author Report Share Posted May 17, 2023 (edited) @Tyrus i think even more so dangerous would be fugu. but after tasting it recently, it was very underwhelming. like a plain whitefish served raw, raw milt, fried, or in a plain broth. some people say they get a numbing sensation after tasting it (neurotoxins i assume) but i didn't get any of that fun stuff..  Edited May 17, 2023 by David Chang 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
