[size 2]This thread is for Sucker fish recipes. If you have some, feel free to add any that you may have.[/size]
[size 2]Note: While the delicately textured white meat of most suckers is quite tasty, the boniness of these fishes can make their preparation difficult. While carefully scoring the fish then frying it in oil is one method to soften the bones, steaming and microwaving allows the meat to be readily removed, and both pickling and canning will soften the bones enough to be safely digested.[/size]
