Seafood Medley – Dissection Table To Dinner Table

Seafood Medley – Dissection Table To Dinner Table

River Landing17As much as I love to play with ingredients and act as a professional butcher. There are few things that would completely gross me out! Oh yeah…I really shy away from weird sea creatures! Well, I do have a valid reason for that! As a Biotechnologist, I have had enough encounters in the past, with such specimens on my  dissection table!!!

Recently I had a long chat with good ole friend of mine, who rekindled those lovely memoirs! Well, I got to confess to her, how I have changed over years and started feeding on those seafood with great enthusiasm, now. :) Hmmmm, the change did happen after coming to U.S. when you have so limited options to fill you up. :( Moreover, the fancy pack of soooper kleeen, chopped, odorless food, sure delights you to pick! And, why wouldn’t I cook them. :)

  • 1/4 tsp turmeric
