I just found your blog - lovely! It's interesting how many Lent posts I've discovered in food-blog world recently. Growing up, we always followed the 'never eat meat on Fridays' rule. As much as I try to stick to it, sometimes I admit I don't (am I going to hell!!??). Lidia is one of our faves and that stuffed calamari has been on my list of 'to-do's'. you've inspired me! We did a

What came first the egg or the chicken? Either or, it looks incredibly comforting!

What a great column! Now, I would consider that fish stew, as opposed to broth (generally strained) or steamed fish (generally not in broth) but again, what would I know?<BR/><BR/> I do bet it tastes quite good, though :)

From the first glance, i thought it was Teochew-style steamed fish. Looks good!

Thanks for writing about cooking red snapper fish heads! I grew up eating a sour soup made of fish heads and loved it. But I've been skeptical about sharing it with others because some might see it as....yuck!<BR/>You made this dish look so beautiful!

hey... to me it looks a bit (only slightly) like bacalao... which i absolutely love. <BR/><BR/>the BTA had a really nice reception here in Atlanta the other day. I thought of you. I should have taken pics but there was a photog there. I'll make sure to share them when I find them... I'm wondering y the food served wasn't Bajan, though... I'll make sure to ask Brian... (BTA official)... <BR/><BR/>

That looks and sounds so delicious. I love the fact that you have used fish heads too - people shouldn't shy away from using them and I bet a lot more people will try thanks to you - including me!

It looks like every great nation has a great way to prepare fish head. I had a grilled fish head once in Hong Kong that was to die for. This looks just as awesome!<BR/>:-)

Whats in a name? the dish looks good and tastes good, its better to gobble it first and then name it later (or dont name it at all, thats fine by me:)

In this case I afraid that I cant help, but sometimes the name doesn't matter, the important is the flavor of the dish , and for me the dish looks delicious . Maybe you can say:<BR/>The name is delicious fish .....:)

Love the dishes you whip out Cynthia. they sound more or less the same as in Mauritius!

This looks like good old-fashioned Jamaican fish tea (but with veggies).<BR/><BR/>I find when I make something up, if I just list the key ingredients in French or Italian it sounds like a real thing. Like "Zuppa de Pesci". I guess you could call it Fish Monger's Stew. <BR/><BR/>Me? I'd call it "dinner".

I'm not familiar with this, because I live in the hillbilly Ozarks, of the US.<BR/>Fresh seafood we do not have.<BR/><BR/>Looks great, though.<BR/>How's the nephew? Mine is doing well. He's 5 months now.

I'm not sure about the name either, but anything made with a fish head broth is bound to be good, right?

Dear Cynthia, in Spain, this would be called fish broth. We usually use the fish head to do this. When we make steamed fish, we use the hole fish ( cut into thick slices) <BR/>Many people don't like to eat parts like the head and use it only to make the broth and to give a good flavour. Once its cooked, you can add some noodle and you have a fish soup.
