Wolf-fish. Marine catfish. A fish of northern waters. It is medium oily and white-fleshed. Since it eats shellfish, its own flavour is good. Its jaws are strong and it has a blunt head which lend to its unattractive appearance and which is why it is normally sold filleted or in cutlets. It has few small bones and can be used in the same way as monkfish (US: angler fish), in stews or grilled. It is sometimes sold as rock salmon or rock turbot.
Herring smoked over alder wood and served on rye bread with chives, salt, onion and the yolk of a raw egg.
Cake made with ground almonds, icing sugar, castor (US: superfine) sugar, and egg whites.
