Halibut

April 3, 2015October 7, 20193 Comments

If you’re planning fish for your Good Friday dinner, halibut would be a good choice. Pacific halibut, a sustainable fish, is like a blank canvas – it works well in many different types of preparation, from simple fish sticks to French-style stew. The official Pacific season doesn’t start until May, but flash-frozen, wild-caught halibut should be available in the freezer section year ’round.

All I did was say to my wife, “That piece of halibut was good enough for Jehovah!”
