PESCADO

We didn't get to the river construction site due to strong winds and thunderstorms.  Not pleasant to have winds blowing construction dirt in one's face.

So, my sister asked for a post on fish.  Coincidentally, we went to market today and bought some mero fillets.  Mero is grouper.  There are several different fish stands from which to choose.











Lenguado is sole, huachinango is red snapper, robalo is sea bass, cazón is shark or dogfish (!).   One of these days we're going to have to buy pulpo, that red octopus you see above, and figure out how to make a cocktail out of it, a ceviche-like concoction that is a favorite of el Sr J.  Except without the catsup/ketchup (ugh), which is included in the seafood cocktails here.  And when the family gathers at the beach next January, we will treat everyone to serrandeado/zarandeado.  That one you'll have to look up.
