...can't remember the recipe. Is it just boil cubes of halibut in salted 7-Up or Sprite until they float?

I've always used sugar in boiling water. I can't remember off hand, but I think I always used 4 cups of water and 1 cup sugar.

My buddy does his in cheesecloth(to keep it together) with some herbs.

You got it Bill. Easy, and tasty. Dip in butter.

hmm hadn't heard of this might have to give her a try

It's pretty good!!!!!

Friends in Ketchikan always did it in chicken broth.

I have always done this recipe/method with cabezon. It is a really dense meat, and their main diet is guess what... small crabs. You are what you eat, and cabezon have a naturally "crabby" nature and taste to them.

I always use 2 cups of sugar and a cup of salt.To 2 quarts of water.Cut the fish into 1/4 inch thick strips.Slowly bring the water, sugar, salt ,mixture to a boil dissolving it as much as possible.

Drop the fish in.When it floats its done.Probably less than a minute.Dip in garlic butter and enjoy!

Todd showed me this same thing with cabezon. I've done it with sprite, 7-up, etc. Usually dip the chunks in a soy/wasabi mix. Yum.
