Fried huachinango Posted by Donnas on December 26, 2023, 11:17 am We're looking for the best deep fried whole fish for our final lunch. Recommendations?

Re: Fried huachinango Posted by Carol on December 26, 2023, 12:20 pm, in reply to "Fried huachinango" Related to this: what's the best Spanish term to say "not overcooked"... For fish, it's important here. I've heard "jugoso", "suave", "tierno" - has anyone else nailed down the best word or phrase? Once I tried one of those terms, and it came out of the kitchen actually still raw! So maybe it's a problem of technique, or local preference, not language, but...it's worth a try!

Re: Fried huachinango Posted by david dagoli on December 26, 2023, 3:52 pm, in reply to "Re: Fried huachinango" Instead of deep-fried fish, I would recommend pescado zarandeado. This is the signature dish of the Costa Alegre, highlighted by Rick Bayliss on his tv show "Mexico, One Plate at a Time”. https://www.rickbayless.com/recipe/fish-zarandeado/ The best ones we have had were on the beach at Tenacatita, but I would also recommend the zarandeado at Bahia Azul Restaurant here in La Manzanilla. Enjoy!
