Criminey's, Ma! It's only 5:30 in the morning and you have me wanting creole for breakfast. Smells good! Thanks!
 
tex, is yellow mustard something special?
and I asked Frank about his Sauce, but he says it doesn't fit with fish... :cool:
so what is Frank's sauce?

It is a brand name for Tabasco Sauce. It goes very well with seafood of all sorts. :angel:
 
Here are two recipes that I guarantee you and your family will just adore, and they don't taste fishy. The first, mahi-mahi in coconut caramel sauce, I sort of borrowed from the Ana Mandara Vietnamese restaurant in San Franciso's Ghirardelli Square, but it's no longer on their menu so I guess they won't mind.

The second, Snapper Romano, was given to me by Kelly Bennett, one of the chefs at Scoma's, an extremely popular Italian seafood restaurant at Fisherman's Wharf, also in San Francisco.
