Filed under: News — Tags: , ,

Alaska’s long line cod fishing companies are in talks to form an export group. Complete with federal backing, export guarantee and anti trust exemptions. It will give more power to the fisherman to be able to set fair prices and divide up export markets and deny products to unapproved sellers.

It is to ensure that products are paid for to protect the hard working fisherman of Alaska. Long line fishing is well known to do the least damage to the environment. At present almost all the Cod caught in the Pacific is sold within the US with small amounts going to China and Russia.

  • 1 small leek
  • Salt and pepper

MUSSELS

SAUCE:

  • 1 shallot

Method:

Beans:

  1. Cut the leek lengthwise in 2.
  2. Cook the beans in a pressure cooker with 3 cups of water and the leek. Season with salt and pepper. Our beans were probably last year’s crop and we had to cook them for 35 minutes.

Mussels:

  1. Wash them until the water is clear, remove the algae if any, put in a pan, cover and cook over medium heat until they are open.
  2. Turn the heat off and keep warm.

Fish:

  1. Melt the butter in a pan with a cover. Put the fish, add salt and pepper, cover and let cook over medium low heat, about 6 minutes

Sauce:

  1. Melt ½ of the butter in a saucepan. Add the chopped shallot. Drain the water from the mussels and add to the sauce.
  2. Add the wine.
  3. Add some of the water from the fish, if any.
  4. Add the cream. Season to taste.
  5. In a small bowl mix the other half of the butter and the flour until you have like a ball (beurre manié). Add to the boiling sauce, stirring constantly. Rectify seasoning.

Serve the sauce in a soup plate, add a few spoonfuls of beans, put the cod on top of the beans, and decorate around the cod with the mussels. Serve immediately.
