Just to give you an idea how exclusive tuna has become - On January 2001, a 440 pound bluefin sold for $220, 000. Another 511 pound example sold on January 2010 for $175, 000.
au contraire. it's THE part real gourmets know to ask for.
the fattiness of any fish is concentrated around the head and the belly. behind the eyes, u get delicious gelatin that expresses purely the sweetness of the fish, without any unpleasant smell.
i'd say he won only because he did the eyeball dish. if any part signs off the fish as a theme ingredient, it's the eyeball gelatin itself.
it is true. giving me a thumbs down won't make u any more right.
eggplant tastes fantastic with dried baby shrimp and chilli, but not alone. it requires a very strong backing to actually make it taste palatable, save for acquired / unique tastes.
alone it's musky with a hint of grassy sweetness right at the end of chewing. that's eggplant described in a sentence
you had just said it doesn't have a significant bland taste, and that it was usually overpowering.
well, for a chef who doesn't know what he is doing that may be true. eggplant's skin and flesh are almost two different ingredients. one should know what he/she is doing.
it's also used in many simple dishes, so that it's at the forefront. eggplant jam, puree with garlic, stuffed eggplant, caramelized eggplant with cream etc.. check out mid east cuisine.
"eggplants provide a rather musky bland taste. it overpowers a lot of stuff surprisingly easily"
i don't get why you keep thumbsing me down
anyhoo, like i said, it's a musky flavour that sort of overpowers subtle flavours. for example, no one would eat eggplant with delicate hong kong style steamed fish, it'd overpower all the delicate flavours. with other strong flavours though, it'd taste fantastic. imagine tomato puree, or cream, garlic to accentuate not flavour, like u said..
first you say, "you need incredible amounts of chilli and oil to make the thing even have any sort of significant taste" by that definition one would expect an ingredient with similar qualities like tofu.
you also say, it overpowers things easily. those two are contradictory. it's rare to have both.
and even if you did have an ingredient like that why would you want to accentuate the bland taste with garlic? and why should it taste fantastic? you don't make sense.
by significant taste, i referred to an outstanding sharp taste of one or more of the 4 major flavours, sweet, sour, bitter, salty. having a musky aftertaste doesn't exactly reflect as a flavour, as technicality permits, but it's still a detectable description
the muskiness covers up other flavours easily, masking subtle delicate flavours like soy. it, however, accentuates spicier/masculine flavours better, meaning stuff chilli, garlic, dried baby shrimp
you are not asking questions. you are merely making uneducated remarks. and you continue doing them.
does meat have any of the "significance" you mention? would you criticize meat as an ingredient as well?
you obviously don't know what you are talking about. just check a turkish restaurant and ask the chef how many different dishes he can make with eggplant. and taste some.

How the hell can eggplant "overpower" tuna? And as usual she complains about the salt.

eggplants provide a rather musky bland taste. it overpowers a lot of stuff surprisingly easily.
even in simple chilli stir fry, you need incredible amounts of chilli and oil to make the thing even have any sort of significant taste.
it's the sort of thing anyone who can and does cook will know.

that's simply not true.
