Travis Posted April 13, 2019 Report Share Posted April 13, 2019 Casón was the "fish of the day" at an Ajijic fonda on Friday. Not sure if the accent mark is needed but that's how waitress pronounced it. What is it casón? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattoleriver Posted April 13, 2019 Report Share Posted April 13, 2019 Cazón: dogfish, sometimes called "baby shark." A firm-fleshed white fish, cazon is sometimes used to substitute for more expensive fish, such as huachinango — red snapper — in a wide range of dishes. Perhaps the most famous regional specialty made with cazon is Campeche's pan de cazón, tortillas with shredded fish and black beans. http://www.mexconnect.com/articles/2314-culinary-guide-to-mexican-fish-and-shellfish-las-delicias-del-mar-i Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AngusMactavish Posted April 14, 2019 Report Share Posted April 14, 2019 This clip from Yahoo has me ready to try some. Yes, dogfish can be eaten. It's widely eaten in the UK as part of Fish & Chips, usually sold under the name Huss or Rock Salmon (Spiny dogfish). It can be used as any other fish. It's not as firm as some sharks or swordfish, but it's not mushy like Basa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CHILLIN Posted April 14, 2019 Report Share Posted April 14, 2019 Well - no bones, you gotta like that. Stocks are rebuilding in Banderas Bay. During WWII there was a very large shark fishery there to provide troops with shark liver oil supplement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
