....Oceanography stuff I imagine....

Marine biology, actually, with a good dose of public awareness and visibility thrown in. OCEARCH runs a Twitter page for her, which mostly consists of location updates from her tracker. And she always follows people back, which I think is really cool.

No soup for you!!

Lolololol .... poor sharks ...predator-to-prey ....

 

[Cheffie1983]

Depends on how you want to make it. I've done shark chili. Black beans, cumin, coriander, cilantro, light tomato purée, chili powder, onion, and habanero pepper to give it spice (not too much, you can always add more)

How do you get that oily, musky flavor out? That sounds like a cross between Indian and Southwestern cuisine. Is it good?

 

[Cheffie1983]

It is good. And if you marinate the shark over its in a little lemon juice and olive oil, then grill it. Takes care of it.

I'll try almost anything once: Rocky Mountain oysters, rattlesnake . . .

STOP SHARK FINNING

Every year tens of millions of sharks die a slow death because of finning. Finning is the inhumane practice of hacking off the shark’s fins and throwing its still living body back into the sea. The sharks either starve to death, are eaten alive by other fish, or drown (if they are not in constant movement their gills cannot extract oxygen from the water). Shark fins are being “harvested” in ever greater numbers to feed the growing demand for shark fin soup, an Asian “delicacy”.
