A conical, univalve shellfish. These they may be cooked by washing them and then boiling them for about 5 minutes in seawater (or heavily salted water) is recommended. They have a small amount of meat and it is inclined to toughness, like a lot of those things that cling onto rocks. Alternatively the meats can be dug out and used in fish stews or chowders or in sauces to garnish other fish.
Lincolnshire Poacher is a hard, Cheddar-like cow's milk cheese with a rich herby flavour. Currently this is the only Lincolnshire cheese and is made by the fourth generation of one farming family from the milk of their Holstein cattle. These produce richer, creamier milk than Friesians. This cheese was Supreme Champion at 1996 British Cheese Awards.
With stocks of some of the great fish of the world dwindling, line-fishing is now seen as the respectable way to catch them. This controls the numbers caught and shows some care for the fish stocks. Fish caught this way is, inevitably, more expensive, but it is a cost worth paying, if you are able. In the UK fish caught in this way is labelled through the gills with a plastic tag. From this tag you can track exactly when and where a fish was caught.
Ling, among other names, is sometimes used to mean the cobia. These fish are found in both the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans and are pelagic. Feeding mainly on crabs and small squid, this adds to the flavour of their own, firmly-textured flesh. They are typically served in the form of grilled or poached fillets.
In North America this is a hake. Ling is a long, slender, greenish-brown scaleless fish with a barbel. This is a long, slim member of the cod family. Although they can grow up to 1 meter (3 ft) in length, the average size now is about 30-50 cm (12-30 inches). They are found in temperate and cold waters. During the day they lurk on the bottom, but rise in the evenings to hunt for fish such as herring and mackerel. It is very confusing that the name ling is used to describe what the English call hake. It is the cod's largest relative and can grow to nearly 2 meters (6 ft) in length.
The ling is a long, slender, greenish-brown scaleless fish with a barbel. It is the cod's largest relative and can grow to nearly 2 meters (6 ft) in length. In the Atlantic they live near rocks, eating flatfish, round fish and small crustaceans and octopus, though it is occasionally found in the Mediterrean. A smaller variety lives in the Mediterranean (blue ling).
This is not a ling but a member of the greenling family fished in the Pacific along North American coasts, weighing 2.3-9 kg (5-20 lb). It has mottled brown to bluish-green skin with green, brown or terra spots which have a circle around them of orange or light blue. The flesh lightens from greenish-blue to white during cooking.
