Everything about Fish Boil totally explained
A
fish boil is a
Great Lakes culinary tradition in areas of
Wisconsin (USA), with large
Scandinavian populations, particularly
Door County,
Port Wing and
Port Washington, Wisconsin. The meal consists of
Lake Michigan or
Lake Superior whitefish (though
lake trout can be used), with other ingredients.
The fish is typically caught by local fishermen, cut into small chunks and cooked in boiling water with red potatoes. Some boilers add onions as well. Salt is the only seasoning used, and used only to raise the
specific gravity of the water.
The cooking of the fish is an elaborate presentation. Restaurants typically ask that patrons arrive a half hour early to witness the boiling. The fish and potatoes are placed in a cast-iron kettle. When the water comes to a boil the potatoes, kept in a wire basket, are lowered in.
The fish are then placed in another wire basket and lowered in. When the fish oils rise to the top of the pot, the boiler will add a small amount of kerosene to the flames. The increase in flames causes a boilover, the fish oils spill over the side of the pot, and the fish is done.
