Thanks
It's smoked like smoked haddock. Skinless, boneless, cheaper than haddock and when steamed the flesh is a bit more "moist" than haddock sometimes can be, so we like it just steamed with veg. I think I saw one report likening it more to sole.
It's not like mackerel (haven't had herring).working on clearing the clutterDo I want the stuff or the space?0 -
