Smoked Whitefish

[Tannersgrandpaw]

Tanner and I went to the middle sec. of the Provo last Sat. Tanner started out catching a small Brown, that we turned loose, and hooked two more he could not land. We moved on and finally caught Tanners first Whitefish. Then two nice Browns. We took them home and smoked them. That Whitefish turned out tasting as food as a Trout! I guess we won't have to cook them on a pine board anymore.[cool]

I used to target Whitefish quite often when I lived in Idaho. There were plenty of them close to home and with the right recipe, they can be very palletable to any gullet.

Although they have a few more bones in them, they are rather easy to fillet and leave boneless for the frypan, George Forman Grill, broiler, oven or even fit into a nice fish chowder recipe.[cool]

That does sound good. How about a spicey Catfish stew? That would hit the spot like chilli on a cold day. []

Use all of your favorite ingredients for clam chowder and substitute the fish for the clams. Deeeeeeelicious.[cool]

Sorry in advance macfly55! [sly]

You just substitute fish for the clams? Surely you'd have to use a certain type of fish, something with a little stronger taste. If you used a light, flakey fish, wouldn't it be hard to get the flavor to flow into the chowder? I know when I make clam chowder, I put clam juice in with it to help highten the flavor.
