Fish

Phyllo-Wrapped Brie With Hot Honey and Anchovies

While most baked Bries are on the sweet side, with layers of jam or chutney under the crust, this one goes savory with anchovies, garlic, and roasted bell peppers.

The No-Cook Dinner Party of My Dreams

When you don’t want to—or literally can’t—turn on the oven, you can still put together a delicious spread.

Esqueixada de Montaña (Cured Trout with Tomato, Black Olive, and Onion)

Esqueixar means “to shred” and that’s what’s done to salt cod in this traditional Catalonian cold dish. Trout is used in this dish instead.

Grilled Salmon With Peach Curry and Coconut Cream

Juicy ripe peaches and beautiful pink salmon scream summer. A little curry paste and herbs keep this sweet- spicy curry squarely in the savory realm, and a drizzle of reduced coconut cream cools things off.

Sinuglaw (Vinegar-Cured Tuna With Grilled Pork Belly)

Sinuglaw is a combination of fish ceviche—in this case, vinegar-cured tuna—plus smoky grilled pork belly. The flavorful dish gets dressed with coconut milk, ginger, red onion, chiles, and tomato.

For the Most Succulent Fish, Cook the Collar

This ocean-friendly cut is cheaper than fillets—and richer in flavor.

Sweet and Salty Fish Collars

The collar is one of my favorite parts of the fish. Baste it with naturally sweet and salty flavor from briny kombu and dark sweet prunes. The briny and sweet sauce is easy to make ahead and store in the refrigerator. The collars of a large fish, such as cod, is the part between the head and the body; it has a (healthy omega-3) fatty richness that is ultra-satisfying. 

Salted Salmon

This recipe for salted salmon is excerpted from Maori Murota’s Tokyo Cult Recipes. The method, called shioyaki, can be adapted to fish collars as well.

Marinated Croaker Collars With Citrus and Green Mango Salad

I love to cook with ingredients that might otherwise be discarded, like fish collars. If you’re tempted to treat them as scraps, please don’t throw them away or use them merely for a stock. They’re delicious as the main focus of a dish—think of them as the spareribs of the sea. Here, croaker collars are marinated in citrus, chipotle, ginger, and fish sauce, and served with a mango salad full of funk, spice, and crunch.
