Off Topic Seafood.

Our lass bought me a smoker for Xmas and i got myself a pizza oven last week ready for the summer coming i'me a bit like Jamie Oliver can't cook fu ck all but have a canny lisp.

I want to build a small brick smoker. You've given me an idea there. I could build a two in one smoker/pizza oven would just need a chimney shut off.
 
I had pickled herring once in a tapas restaurant and it was one of the nicest things I've ever had, never seen it since. I'd heard it was everywhere in Amsterdam but I never saw it.
When I worked in Holland the bastards brought the f ucking stuff between every bloody course nearly spewed when i looked at it by the time i was due to come home

Thats a canny idea Bri I was lucky as I hadn't thrown the bricks away from the storage heaters from this old house I am doing so I am using them for a base for the pizza oven to stand on.
 
Taste, texture, appearance. I hate everything about cooked salmon.

Never had carpaccio, but had something similar where the meat is thinly cut like carpaccio, but then it's cooked in an acidic marinade and not eaten until it's fully cooked through. So it's meat cooked without heat. it was ok. Unusual. Can't remember what it's called though it was years ago.
Cerviche or some spelling of that variety. Think it's Peruvian in origin. They cook the fish in lemon juice's acidity.
 
This was lemon based. The name doesn't ring a bell but a word like that is never going to stick in my head.

Pretty sure that's it. It was all the rage in Soho when I left London, never tried it myself as it sounds like it would be sour and slimey.

Looking at pictures, what I had was very different in appearance, it was thinly sliced like smoked salmon. The texture was like a rough smoked salmon but a bit squishier to the bite yet broke more easy to the bite too if you know what I mean? That's the best I can describe it. Bizarre texture to say the least. Obviously tasted nowt like smoked salmon.
