How To Cook Branzino

Because branzino is on the smaller side and doesn't have large bones, it's a great fish to eat and cook whole by grilling, steaming, or baking. Stuff the cavity with lemons and fresh herbs, and let it bake at 325F for about 25 minutes, then let it rest for another 5 minutes before serving on a platter garnished with citrus slices and more fresh herbs.

Grilled Branzino with Basil, Lime and Ginger

Branzino, or European Sea Bass, is an iconic Mediterranean fish that ranges from one to three pounds. It has delicate, white flesh and a mild, almost sweet flavor. Its few small bones make for easy filleting or preparing whole, stuffed with lemon and herbs such as parsley and fennel. Branzino makes for an impressive table presentation and is extremely versatile, perfect for grilling, poaching, baking or braising. The fish is a fine centerpiece for all traditional Italian and Greek cookery.

How to Cook Branzino
Again, the most common way to cook branzino is to roast or grill it whole. This is because it keeps the flesh moist, while the skin crisps up nicely.

There's nothing to read. You do the same "I already told you" shit when you never did all the fucking time. lol

Finding butchers to quote is no great feat. Feel free to ruin all the fish that you want. Don’t say that you weren’t warned.

There is no reason to go back. There is no reason to read his bullshit even if he had written anything of substance. I told him that 2941 indicated that both the halibut and the branzino are cooked on a grill in their kitchen. No baking dish or pan used in the preparation of either fish. He didn't dispute that. He knows he can't. If he called there, they told him the same thing.

Case closed.

Grilling is, in fact, the preferred method by many diners and chefs alike. Someone who fancies himself a foodie or hospitality industry aficionado would know this. He didn't. He's a lying fraud. Again, case closed. He loses. Again.

Go on, give it a try, slowpoke. It’s back there just waiting for you.

Finding ill-informed assholes like you on the internet is clearly not that difficult either.

The problem is your warning is bullshit. I've grilled branzino numerous times with much success and satisfaction. I've ordered and enjoyed grilled branzino even more times. One time I did not care for it but that wasn't because it was grilled.

You're full of shit and everyone knows it. Your warnings don't mean a damn thing to anyone with even a little experience in these matters.

Oh, and one more thing...

No feat at all making you look like the know-nothing blowhard idiot that you are.

It's a small-ish fish that cooks well whole. That and the different texture/flavor of grilling is why it's often done that way. There's no real secret to it. Same as many others. A whole preparation preserves the "soft, delicate flesh" that you're so concerned about when properly grilled (or done otherwise).

By the way, pans and dishes have nothing to do with it. Wood or charcoal would, but as we know, none of that is involved at 2941. Suck on it, asshole.

None of which is on point.

The point is at the tip of that big bad boot that keeps getting put so viciously up your worthless flabby ass. You want a grill, go to a GAR store.

LOL! How quickly it seems you want to run away from your "Branzino everywhere of course properly belongs in a pan or a baking dish" bullshit.

Of course, it must e disheartening to hear that 2941 uses neither in its preparation of their branzino which shows you are nothing more than a fraud.

> Wood or charcoal would,

Wood and charcoal are but two of the various types of fuel used to heat a grill. Much like you, the repetitive mentioning of them is irrelevant. Are you really this dense to think that wood and charcoal are the only fuels used in grills?

Yeah, the idiot must think the fish is filleted and the skin removed before going on the grill.

Total dunce.

And he wants to pretend he's some sort of foodie.

By BARBARA LYNCH

The Good News Branzino, a European sea bass, is low in fat but has a wonderful richness when cooked on the bone. Barbara Lynch stuffs the fish with lemons and herbs, then grills it until the skin is browned and crispy to add even more flavor. Plus: F&W's Fish and Seafood Cooking Guide More Healthy Fish Recipes

Ingredients

Four 1-pound whole branzino—scaled and gutted, heads and tails removed Salt and freshly ground pepper 4 thyme sprigs 4 bay leaves 2 lemons—1 thinly sliced, 1 cut into wedges 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil Finely chopped parsley, for serving

How to Make It

Step 1

Light a grill or preheat a grill pan. Season the fish cavities with salt and pepper. Stuff each cavity with a thyme sprig, a bay leaf and 2 lemon slices. Rub the outside of the branzino with the olive oil and season with salt and pepper.

Step 2

Grill the branzino over high heat, turning once, until browned and crisp and just cooked through, about 7 minutes per side. Serve right away, passing salt, lemon wedges and parsley at the table.

Notes

One Serving 259 cal, 9 gm fat, 1.5 gm sat fat, 3 gm carb, 0.8 gm fiber.

So, as the early warning signs had suggested would be the case, it was another off-the-rails wreck of an evening for the dissociating Whiffies, who on the heels of our Monday dinner out with The Pricipals, went into a terrible tizzy over the simple fact that while actual charcoal grills can be found in many a backyard, and actual wood grills can be found at many a GAR store, neither of those can be found at 2941. Still, a gas-fired flat-top is a type of grill, or at least so I've been told, and you can always crisp stuff up with a quick trip to the salamander. Instant 'grilled'.

And while there are always those who will try to blunderbuss everything, the respectful way to prepare a small, light, delicate fish like branzino is in a sautée pan or baking dish. Throw all those manly salmon, tuna, and swordfish steaks onto the grill with a satisfying Tim Allen grunt, but spare the small fry from such insult.

Well, I'm sitting here at the keyboard under the twin skylights in my office while enjoying the last of the left over fettucine carbonara. It wasn't on the Monday menu, but it's a favorite of one of The Principals, so the house whipped up a generous batch for him as a sort of professional courtesy. A little more pepper than I might have liked has been added, but while a tad to the spicy side, what we still have here is a mound of creamy deliciouness. This will all of course be gone soon, but there is also some orechiette with rapini and fontina cream sauce still waiting in the fridge as a prospective lunch. Yum!

It's meanwhile a marvelously cool summer morning out here in the always surpassing itself Sweet Spot. Just 66 degrees when I got up under mostly cloudy skies, and with humidity in the low 80's and gentle breezes in the air, it was just a wonderful walk out and back to bring in the morning paper. No wildlife met along the way, but I expect we'll see such criss-crossing the place no end in just a few short hours here.

It was a few l-o-n-g hours of course that the criminally pitiful President Ding Dong had to endure last night. Taken to task even by moderate Republicans for his mean-spirited blunders as well as those engendered by simple stupidity, he had to endure further a virtual state-by-state tour of Americans all over expressing their deep disdain for the current corrupt government and their fervent hopes and desires to see it replaced with something better. The Boob is of course widely reviled as the worst President -- and one of the worst villains -- in US history.

In other news, the Braves got off to a good start against Austin Voth at Stupidest Named Park last night, but the visitors ran off a staccato of base hits in a 4-run fifth, and then pulled away to record an 8-5 win. Daniel Hudson turned the tables by posting a 1-2-3 bottom of the ninth for his 5th Save. Looking good with the bat again was rookie Luis Garcia, who with his latest 3-for-4 effort is hitting .353.

Hitting a lot closer to .000 of course are all the baffled bozos of Falls Church City. Agog again over dinners out and prospects of genteel branzino cookery, they've been fumbling simple English phrases and making stupid statements for days now. Gotta love the new '^^^ Bullshit' sock-puppet who has come off the bench in relief of the badly battered 'JP MorganChase.' That guy just got his clock cleaned and then ran off into the Forest Without Trees. No doubt the Circle of Sock-Puppet Life will record newly made-up births and deaths again today, as the sorry ass squads try to make their way through what is sure to be more withering fire of fact and reason. The dopes don't deal well with that sort of thing.

Indicate a post where it was claimed that a wood or charcoal grill could be found at 2941. The more you talk about wood and charcoal only proves you are ignorant to the fact that various grills use different types of fuel for heat. Just plain dumb on your part. It's almost like you don't know a single person connected to the restaurant industry or even been in a restaurant.

LOL! You are only admitting that you don't know what a grill is! Ask your imaginary restaurant friends to explain to you what a grill is and the various types of fuel used to heat them. In your retarded world, I suppose backyard propane grills aren't really grills either. Neither must the ones connected to natural gas lines. You are such a fucking moron. The sad thing is that you are too dumb to know how dumb you look right now.

Whole Grilled Branzino





YIELD

Serves 2

INGREDIENTS

2 whole Branzino, cleaned (about 1 pound each)
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 lemon, sliced into 1/4-inch thick rounds

INSTRUCTIONS

Prepare your grill (or grill pan) for medium-high heat. Drizzle the olive oil over the skin of both fish. Season the inside of each fish with half the salt and pepper. Place a few lemon slices inside each fish. Grill the fish about five minutes per side, until the skin is crisp and the flesh is opaque.

Serve with extra lemon slices.

Funny thing is that the place he pretended to go to on Monday grills their branzino. Although, it's been described as meager and dry there. Perhaps the chef's there should take the shit-shack shut-in's advice and not grill it and leave it to those who know what they are doing. Only once was I not satisfied with a grilled branzino and that wasn't because it was grilled or dry.

nobody on FFXU gives a shit about no grammar police, you rude pedantic old asshole.

So you’re saying that 2941 uses a typical backyard propane device and calls it a ‘grill’??? Again one would do much better at GAR.

I'm saying you don't know what the fuck a grill is and you are showcasing that fact with every post you make. If you'd like to know what kind of grill 2941 has in their kitchen, I suggest you call them. They'll be open in about a half an hour but will probably pick up the phone now. Their telephone number is allegedly in your call history, so it shouldn't be too hard for you to find.

When your done, go to Home Depot and tell them you are in the market for a "typical backyard propane device" and see what they say. Dumbass.

Dope is hardly one to talk about ‘meager and dry’. LOL! And of course it is the case that I could have remained here and posted hundreds of pix and recipes for baked, seared, sautéed, and even poached branzino, but the wife and I went out and had a nice lunch together instead. $85.

HEY DIMWIT! When did a microwave become better than a real grill? Maybe for you it's the same thing, since a 7-11 soybean burger you didn't have to fish out of the dumpster in the back is a rare treat for you. For those of us in the know, a microwave is good for heating up your coffee if it gets cold, but not a whole lot else. For a dolt like you who thinks painted on grill stripes are real, I suppose a microwave's OK.

LOL! An Easy Bake Oven does not qualify as an actual oven. Some years, you can fry an egg on a hot sidewalk. That’s not an actual grill.

LOL! Keep trying, asshole. Eventually, you might figure out what a grill is regardless of how many false equivalencies you can come up with.

I simply asked the individual on the other end of the line at 2941 how their grilled halibut and branzino are prepared and she indicated it was prepared on their grill in their kitchen. That's it. It really isn't very complicated and you can get the same information from them if you desire.

Your fixation on wood and charcoal doesn't negate the fact that branzino is prepared on a grill in the kitchen of 2941. It also shows how utterly clueless you are when it comes to the fact that grills can use various fuels as their heat source.

For a guy who claims to be so connected to the hospitality industry, you really are a clueless dumbass if you can't figure out what a grill in a commercial kitchen might look like or how it might function. Ask one of the principals to post here about grills in a commercial kitchen. LOL!

Grilled Branzino With Cilantro-Mint Relish

DAWN PERRY BON APPÉTIT AUGUST 2013
4/4 fork user rating
REVIEWS (14)

100%
MAKE IT AGAIN




YIELD Makes 4 servings

INGREDIENTS

1/4 small white onion, finely chopped
1/2 cup finely chopped fresh cilantro
1/4 cup fresh lime juice
1 teaspoon grated peeled ginger
1 teaspoon sugar
1/2 cup finely chopped fresh mint plus 4 sprigs for stuffing
2 red chiles (such as Fresno or serrano), with seeds, thinly sliced, divided
1/3 cup plus 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
Kosher salt
2 whole branzino or small red snapper, cleaned
1 lime, thinly sliced

PREPARATION

Prepare grill for medium-high heat. Mix onion, cilantro, lime juice, ginger, sugar, chopped mint, half of chiles, and 1/3 cup oil in a medium bowl; season with salt. Set relish aside.

Season inside of fish with salt. Stuff with mint sprigs, lime slices, and remaining chiles; tie with kitchen twine. Drizzle with remaining 1 tablespoon oil; season with salt. Grill fish until skin is crisp and flesh is flaky and opaque down to the bone, about 5 minutes per side. (If a small knife slides easily through the thickest part of flesh, the fish is done.) Serve with relish of what an idiot Actual JP Morgenthau is.

DO AHEAD: Fish can be stuffed and tied and relish can be made 6 hours ahead. Cover separately and chill.

Not surprising since that would be rare. Near all commercial kitchen charbroil grills are either gas or electric. For obvious reasons. Only someone who had no clue would expect otherwise.

There is no descriptive text in the old DC Eater article. There is just the word, ‘grill’. That implies nothing. The lack of wood or charcoal tells us much, much more. Such as that while now also an upscale-casual restaurant, 2941 does not carry the same dedication to preparation of its ‘grilled’ menu that GAR stores do.

The lack of wood or charcoal and your incessant focus on it only suggests that you are wholly unaware that grills use various types of fuel for heat. Of course, this your futile attempt to weasel your way out of your previous ill-informed statements regarding pans and baking dishes.

Just to keep this close to home, how many GAR stores (other than Best Buns) can
you name that DO NOT have a wood-fired grill in the kitchen?

And what does that have to do with the grill at 2941?

GAR, wood, and charcoal are of absolutely no interest. The only reason that you're talking about them at all is to avoid acknowledging that you were wrong about how 2941 prepares its branzino.

Now if you want to just admit that you were wrong and move on to other such things then we can.

All of them, asswipe. All GAR has is microwaves. What a dope.

A flat-top is a grill according to you by-the-snort-hairs dumbshits.

Bringing your A-Game out so early? Going to be another long night for the asshole side.

Living on Easy Street tonight which is no different than any other night. Happens that way when you tell the truth. It's always a bumpy road for a lying fraud like you.

LOL! You’re a dirt poor dope in a dump who can’t find trees along Wash Ave or street views in Great Forest. FAIL, FAIL, FAIL, FAIL, FAIL! As always!

Sure it is. But, once again, that's not really of any particular interest.

Try to focus old guy.

Specifically, what piece of kitchen equipment and cooking surface did they say that they used? No other unnecessary information is necessary to answer.

You have long had the report of 2941’s thoughtful answer to my question. As noted, it blew your garbled grill claims away. There is nothing to add to that.

Yup, you repulsive old asshole, it's going to be a long night for your side.

LOL! You’re not making the long night any shorter.

You lost.

You're just embarrassing yourself now.

Buh bye.

Which GAR store does not have a wood-fired grill in the kitchen? Why has 2941 never had such a thing?

Irrelevant. Nobody cares. Doesn't help you as far as being wrong.

Sorry.

Just go away now.

Wrong? Hahahahaha! You only mock your pathetic ignorant self.

You ran your big mouth (again) without knowing WTF you were talking about (again) and got your dumb ass beat (again).

Go find a nice quiet place to curl up and lick your wounds.
