What Is The Most Unusual Food You May Have Seen On Board While Sailing.

[BklynBoy8]

So many interesting subjects have been created for this wonderful and interesting forum.

 

Educational, Interesting and even Bizarra in nature.

 

Has there ever been an Unusual Food you may have seen on board that you never expected to see while Sailing.

 

Maybe I am different and others have seen in the past but once we had on our fish on the QE2 and tasted great. Fried Parsley. How great and sweet. We even asked for more and they brought it.

 

Let me open this question to all.

Coulibiac Of Salmon.  This was offered onboard Celebrity back in the days when they had the Grand Buffet once per cruise.  It is basically a Salmon Wellington.  A whole side of King Salmon sautéed with herbs and spices covered in a fish stock cream sauce and wrapped in puff pastry with egg wash and baked…out of this world.  It is an intricate dish to prepare as you have to get the salmon sautéed rare so it does not overcook during the baking process.  If done to perfection it is an excellent entree.

Use brown sugar!  Brown sugar, cinnamon and orange juice with cornstarch to thicken.  Cook and thicken then add the cherries and cook with a touch of red vermouth or cherry brandy then flame with brandy and serve with ice cream.
