If you enjoy mullet, simply cook it the same way that you do other fish. Yellow-eyed mullet in particular are popular to use as bait. A quick search online will reveal that there are hundreds of recipes to guarantee that your mullet tastes delicious.
You can grill mullet, enjoy smoked mullet, or even bake it in a pan. Once you have your fish fillets, make sure to rinse them off. Then, you can season them as you would any other fish. If this is your first time cooking fish, stick to the basics, and slowly work towards more complicated recipes.
You can easily skip the fancy recipes and use a simple batter with eggs and flour if you would like. Put five eggs in one bowl. Whisk them together.
Then, put flour in another bowl. Rinse the fish fillet under warm water. Then, dip them in the eggs. After that, dip them in the flour ensuring that the fillet is thoroughly covered in flour. Shake off the excess flour, and then put the fillet in the pan to fry, bake, etc.
Everyone has their own personal preference regarding spices and fish. Mullet is known for having a strong taste, so most people prefer strong spices. You might not be able to taste bland spices due to the strong taste of the fish.
Examples of strong spices that are commonly used for mullet include:. Pour vegetable oil or canola oil in the bottom of the pan, and turn the pan on medium heat. Let the oil heat up until you can drop a tiny bit of water on it and it sizzles. Then, put your seasoned fish in the pan, frying one side at a time. It should only take a few minutes for each side to reach a golden brown color. Mullets can be eaten raw and are actually very tasty when marinated lightly in vinegar.
However, most restaurants avoid serving raw mullet because it can cause intestinal heterophysiasis, which can be caused by S. This is a fairly rare condition, but it should be considered before consuming mullet raw. However, catching mullets by fishing rod and hook will require a tiny hook and significant patience. They are typically caught in bulk using a net, but commercial fishermen cannot use a net that has holes bigger than two inches to avoid injuring the fish.
Mullets swim in large schools, so where you see or catch one, there are likely hundreds more in the same area. Mullets are actually very delicious fish, especially if you love seafood and prefer your fish to taste like fish. However, be cautious when eating it raw to avoid getting sick.
