[igor2igor]

what da fuck is opalescent? 

[igor2igor]

@igor2igor Opalescence is a type of dichroism seen in highly dispersed systems with little opacity. The material appears yellowish-red in transmitted light and blue in the scattered light perpendicular to the transmitted light. The phenomenon is named after the appearance of opals.

what fish is she using?

[melonbarmonster]

@2006kcl striped bass... looks like farmed.

[Habiat23]

@melonbarmonster How can you tell it's farmed?

[melonbarmonster]

@Habiat23 in wild they can grow to 40 lbs or more. Minimum size for wild fish are probably much larger than this fish. In NY it's 34 inches or something.

Absolutely fabulous recipe, presentation and Melissa is a "star".

[oinonio]

Love the recipes. Could do without the cute factor, though.

[ewerton1977]

I did the fish(anchovy/bluefish) and it was incredibly good! For those who are complaining and not tried it yet, please try that'll be surprised with the result. Thanks Melissa!

[freebrook]

[FwaffyBanee]

... fish are not suppose to smell fishy?

[Gilgamesh417]

@FwaffyBanee yea. think of it this way, have you ever had sushi or sashimi? have they ever smelled fishy? no, of course not (if you do, the vendor is selling you some crap sushi). instead, fresh fish smell of either nothing or maybe a little briny (like the sea).
