Youngest Hawthorne Provides Lunch Again.

Next catch was a 15-inch + speckled trout.

Does anyone else hear the music
from the Lion King playing here?

Ok...  Just me?

We like to ice our fish,

then soak in buttermilk.

Batter was flour, cornstarch, Old Bay, pinch kosher salt,

and a few grinds of pepper.
Lightly fry - 350° until perfect.

Served with black rice

and blanched green beans with toasted walnuts.
And I think I threw in some feta and dill.

Cilantro with raw coriander seeds gives 

this fish the perfect pop of citrusy and cilantro flavors.

Thank you, Youngest Hawthorne,

for providing yet another meal for us.
