WOW!!! Taponjim and Fishley agree on something....sort of. There will be peace on earth, snow in September, cats and dogs living in harmony and IFG may just yet break the 40# mark.
Here is a really good reciepe for Burbot that we used in Ak.
2 filets of Burbot
1 cup plain white bread crumbs (or Ritz crackers)
1 stick butter (don't use margarine)
Fresh or powdered garlic to taste
1/4 pound uncooked shrimp or cooked crab meat
very cheap white wine or white grape juice for those that would not like to be seen in a liquor store
Soak fillets in wine or juice for 4 hours
In a food processor or blender combine the rest of the stuff (except Burbot), blend until very mushy
Take the fillets and sandwich the food processer stuff between them
Wrap in foil
Cook on 350 for 15 mins, then flip over, cook for 10 mins more.
Note, cooking time varies by fillet thickness but this is about right for a 4 or 5 pound ling.
Get as crazy as you want with the basic reciepe, I've added peppers and onions and all kinds of stuff too it. You will find Burbot is very tender all white meat much like Walleye or Halibut.
They look ugly but they sure are good, much like the IFG...enjoy
