Today's catch


Rovinj langoustines

Not really catch in the sea, but rather nice surprise in the fish market - the little fish market at Rovinj, Croatia is a treasure. Following the season and fish migration, you always find fresh wild fish caught from nearby area, currently is sea bream, sweet firm meat.

Then once in a while they have good shellfish from the sea at the opposite side. Like today there are small quantity of live langoustines and lobsters.

For both, I like the head and claws to be well cooked while the body to be just cooked.

So for the langoustines, I hold the tail and lower the head and claws into a pot of boiling water for 2 minutes, then the whole body in for another 2 minutes. Serve when cooled down.

For the lobsters, I put them in the pot of boiling water, then cover with lid and remove from heat, leave them in there for 15 minutes, sort of lower temperature longer cooking. Also serve when cooled down, sweeter that way.

The cooking degree is perfect in both cases.
