Asking for a friend.
You could go sturgeon spearing in Wisconsin. Cut a hole in the ice, stare at it while drinking for a week hoping a sturgeon swims past. Finally see one and have to guess which of the 3 sturgeon is the real one.
This is such a great comment, lol
Surely this is what a trident is good for
You’re obviously not vegan, so simply adjust your personal ethics until it lets you do what you want. Can’t answer the second part of the question.
Dude, I’ll be your friend.
There’s a podcast called Fish Nerds that began long ago, more than ten years, now. It all started with a couple guys that decided to catch and eat every legal fish in New Hampshire. About 48 species, if I remember correctly. The host, Clay Groves, did catch and eat a sturgeon, although I’m not sure if it was in the original 48 fish or something he did later on, it’s been a lot of years. But, the guy is absolutely helpful to the point of obsession, I believe. I think if you reached out to him, pretty sure it’s fishnerds@gmail but, check that before writing, I could be wrong on the address, he’d be overjoyed to give you the best opinion I think you could get on this question. And it’s a damn good podcast, too.
I do a lot of fishing for food, myself, so I’m really interested in what a sturgeon stroganoff would be like! Sounds fuckin wonderful to me!
Shoot the guy an email, or email it as a question to the pod, I think it would be a great mailbag question on a really interesting subject. And you’d be asking a guy that’s okay as to eating fish. And the most notable fish eater and sustainability freak I can think of.
I can’t help you with the first question, but I very much doubt sturgeon would go well in a stroganoff. For starters, I believe the cooked fish would become very flaky and disappear in the sauce, I also imagine the taste would be very mild as well, you’d be lacking that tangy umami flavor that comes with beef, that’s part of what makes stroganoff taste good (at least for me).
As for the beans, it’s… Fine, I guess? Not the best side dish to go with a stroganoff, I think something like rice or potatoes would be better, but it doesn’t sound horrible.
They sold it at my uni, sales went to the surgeon research department.
