Alwasy been put off by elaborate and rare ingredient lists that require a seperate shopping trip. Keep going though as I like the simplicity of the recipes as well- you never seem to get fancy with one off kitchen equipment either so it is interesting!<br /><br />ConAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5617916682111906948.post-56484856852388626372011-08-20T15:30:48.905-07:002011-08-20T15:30:48.905-07:00Hi Con, pin boned means you take the fillet, place...Hi Con, pin boned means you take the fillet, place it skin side down and run your finger along the flesh against the grain.<br />With a tweezers (or I prefer a pair of pliars) remove any small bones you feel.<br />A good fillet of well prepared fish should have no bones.irishkitchengardenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06104304816335270006noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5617916682111906948.post-5317129520167357062011-08-20T13:49:53.505-07:002011-08-20T13:49:53.505-07:00I like your recipes Simon and am a timid sort of c...I like your recipes Simon and am a timid sort of cook. Very wary of shellfish for example as always worried about getting it wrong. I like whitefish however and know that its hard to get that wrong- can ask what is meant by 'pin boned'?<br /><br />Captain ConAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5617916682111906948.post-56949453089596536732011-08-20T13:19:47.330-07:002011-08-20T13:19:47.330-07:00Firstly, thanks a ton for the feedback.
