Pirate Recipe: Flying Fish
July 3rd, 2007
A pirate recipe can be hard to come by. I have had the good fortune of actually seeing flying fish! During many trips into the Pacific, South China, and Indian Oceans, I have witnessed these amazing creatures fly with ease. The fish can jump out of the water by many feet, and then fly with ease until they land back in the water. If you are lucky, one of them may fly right into the boat. Try this delicious pirate recipe!
