I was going to try to get a picture before he got massacred, but it wasn't a pretty sight.

That's a lake trout Huntrz. And yep Debunk, they do have some teeth. You don't want to stick your thumb in their mouth to bring them in when you catch them. This is the last of the bunch we caught in Lake Superior.

Sesame leaves from the same tree where you get sesame oil and seeds. The only places I've seen them around here are Korean stores. Cut into strips and deep fry so they're crispy.

Lumpia is a Philippine egg roll.

Yep, we've been eating good.

Hey Life,

That looks pretty good, and it's an awsome variety. Last year, wife and I caught a couple of good trout, and she put them in foil with some lemon wedges, and actaully steemed them in the dishwasher!!!!

I thought she was nuts!!!! But, they were actually pretty good...I won't admit that to her though :)

Personally I'll stick with the oven or grill, but I have heard of steaming in the dishwasher. We've got steamers, but none big enough for one of these.
