Every food has a story
I gave my dad a piece of this fish and I could see the wheels start to turn in his mind as he tasted it. You see this is not my smoked fish, it was an appreciated gift from a friend. I knew he'd notice, but I was surprised with what he noticed.
Our mouths are different in this new world, we are so used to strong flavors like salt, sugar, fat, garlic, onion and other spices. Many of us lack the ability to taste subtle flavors or the taste history to be able to notice the nuances. I'll always remember the epiffany I had when elder Luschiim talked to me about flavors.
