Whats Your favoutite Type of Fish (To Eat)
« on: 28 July 2009, 14:11:52 »
The reason I ask is that I was just talking to a mate and told him I had some Scampi in the the freezer.  he then asked was it a type of fish or something else.  To which I had to admit that I didnt actually know.

Variety of Lobster

Several varieties of lobsters are known as scampi. The 'true' scampi are Norway lobsters (Nephrops norvegicus), which are found in the Adriatic, parts of the western Mediterranean, and the Irish Sea, hence its name in Ireland and the United Kingdom, the Dublin Bay Prawn. The French term is langoustine.[1] It is the plural of Italian scampo, but that form is rarely used in English. The name is used loosely both in Italy and elsewhere to refer to other similar species, though some food labelling laws (in Britain, for example) define "scampi" as Nephrops norvegicus.[2]

The fleshy tail of the Norway lobster is closer in both taste and texture to lobster and crayfish than prawn or shrimp.

I must admit as well as Scampi, I love Cod, Only when it's fresh though, hate the frozen stuff.

My favorite is called Hammour (in the middle east). It's actually called a grouper or sea bass in Europe I believe. Very tasty when you know how to grill them  :y

Oh, and yes, tiger prawns tempura  :D

Cod, I guess. Rather expensive in the Middle East, therefore whilst back on holiday in the UK endless trips to the chippy or Harry Ramsden. :y
