Have you ever de-boned a fish? Yeah, I hadn't either. Turns out it's not something to do "on the fly" or on an occasion where you are feeding strangers for a dinner party. I turned to this preparation because I found it photographically interesting and I heard it is THE WAY to cook fish for ultimate moisture. Not to mention, this recipe is unbelievably simple. The salt does all the work for you.

The de-boning I mentioned is actually not that difficult, but maybe requires more patience than I had that night and watching some Youtube videos. For the next round I got it down and the fish was even better the second time. Take it from me and get some help from the professionals at the fish counter because bones or not, this recipe is a sure crowd-pleaser.
