The Game Plan

Recipe Roundup: Feast Of The Seven Fishes

Seven dishes, seven fishes. Mangia!

Dec 24, 2012 11:31 am

Italian Christmas is awesome. We're not mad at turkey, ham and baked ziti on the same plate. Not mad at all. So you get the big Christmas feast, but there's also feast the night before. Do it right, people. If you're going to do Italian Christmas, serve these seven feast-worthy dishes of the sea the night before. And take out the trash after, or Santa may move on to a more cookie-scented household.

How To Clean Catfish

Catch it, gut it, clean it, cook it. Here's how.

The leathery skin of a catfish demands a different approach to cleaning. By first skinning the catfish, you can then either fillet it easily or leave it whole — but gutted — for frying that way, which is a stellar preparation for creek cats in the 14- to 16-inch range.

Now when we say blackened, we don't actually mean black. That would mean your catfish is charred. Rather, when hot fat meets dry spices, they burn slightly, or "blacken," giving you a great, crisp sear and releasing all the oils from the spices right into the fish. Best of all, this technique is so easy you won't even need a "burner" filet.

Few creations in this world are as worthy of Food Republic's Sandwich of the Week as this fried catfish po boy.

While we're crazy about all manners of deli offerings, there's nothing quite like the crunch of a lightly toasted sandwich containing something fried. The cool crunch of homemade coleslaw and warm flakiness of tender catfish contrast perfectly...
