Basil D Posted May 21, 2010 Share Posted May 21, 2010 does anyone eat bonito if so what is the best way to cook it any info wwould be great Hi Hayden, fillet your Bonito, debone and skin off, remove the bloodline as well. sprinkle lemon pepper seasoning all over the fillets. mix a bowl of dry flower with chillie flakes and mix Italian herb. roll the fillets through it and shallow or deep fry.

abecedarian Posted May 21, 2010 Share Posted May 21, 2010 does anyone eat bonito if so what is the best way to cook it any info wwould be great This is one I heard. Fillet the bonito and place in a saucepan. Cover with water and add your favorite herbs and spices. Now here's the important bit. Also put in a nice clean stone and simmer until the stone goes soft. Then throw away the fish and eat the stone... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slaka Posted May 21, 2010 Share Posted May 21, 2010 Bonito is actually quite nice if eaten fresh. As said earlier just skin them and remove the blood line, then cube up the fillets. Stir fry with a little sesame oil and asian veggies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dangas Posted May 21, 2010 Share Posted May 21, 2010 Bleed the fish when captured, put on ice straight away. Fillet, skin and rmove bloodline and bones. Marinade with soy and honey (or alternatively teriyaki sauce)and chilli flakes optional. Grill on the bbq but dont overcook, grill it so that the meat is still moist and medium to medium rare. Or u can eat it as sashimi with "sushi soy sauce" and wasabi. Either way its not bad. Most people tend to overcook the meat and thats when it starts to taste dry and fishy and generally crap.

arpie Posted May 21, 2010 Share Posted May 21, 2010 Crumbed Bonito is lovely. Bleed the fish when captured, put on ice straight away. Fillet & skin and remove bloodline and bones. Put 2-3 cups of some very fine breadcrumbs into a large plastic bag & drop about 4 fillets into it. SHake the bag until all the fillets are covered with crumbs. Do the same with the rest of the fillets. Freeze any spare fillets on a cookie tray (on top of some kitchen paper) and when frozen, bag them into 'meal sized portions'. They can be cooked from frozen. Just fry them in shallow oil. Serve with lemon wedges, potato or sweet potato wedges cooked in the oven & salad! YUM!
