A lifetime of consuming seafood!

In at this time’s recipe, I’m sharing all of the gadgets we placed on our seafood platter – a staple on Christmas Day! We love the convenience (principally no-cook, simply assembling) and since it’s a deal with reserved for particular events. Australian seafood is unimaginable, however good high quality seafood is just not low-cost!

For this reason we’re fairly meticulous with analysis and taste-testing our seafood – we even write nerdy notes to ourselves as reminders, to refine our purchases for the following store. As a result of there’s nothing extra disappointing than spending hard-earned cash on costly crab solely to search out it tastes fully bland.

So this put up at this time is basically our purchasing listing of what we embrace on our seafood platter. Be taught from all the ideas we’ve got picked up over a lifetime of seafood consuming, and watch me purchase the seafood on the Sydney Fish Markets to place the seafood platter collectively in at this time’s video!

SUMMARY – What we put on our seafood platter

Here’s a abstract listing of what goes on our seafood platter. Please see under sections on the why, why not, and additional ideas. Notice: I’m in Sydney, Australia.

1. pre-cooked seafood, served chilly

That is the seafood we get that we bought pre-cooked, or seafood that’s served uncooked. All the things we get is Australian – we particularly guarantee it’s as a result of we all know it is going to be higher.

1. Prawns (pre-cooked) – Tiger, king or banana prawns.

2. Oysters – Pacific or Sydney Rock (Tasmanian and Merimbula oysters are my favourites)

3. Morton Bay Bugs (over Balmain Bugs) – Pre-cooked.

4. Blue swimmer crabs (finest over 350g) – Pre-cooked. Alternatively: Spanner crabs, however learn crab part under (together with king crab & mud crab recommendation).

5. Sashimi – Kingfish, tuna, salmon are commonest

6. Smoked salmon – Bought in packets, I solely get Huon (Tasmanian).

7. Dipping sauces – Our Household Favorite Seafood Sauce, and Tartare or Marie Rose sauce (recipes right here)

TIPS: Seafood high quality is healthier at fish mongers and the fish markets, one cause being they appear after it higher than massive chain grocery shops. For all of the above, we solely get Australian, and seafood that’s undergone as little freezing as potential. The freshest seafood has by no means been frozen: caught and bought ideally on the identical day. Nonetheless the truth is a few seafood needs to be snap frozen at sea earlier than reaching market and is bought thawed. This contains even cooked prawns on the fish markets throughout Christmas time. Achieved correctly, wonderful seafood high quality continues to be maintained.

However the level is, the much less freezing-thawing cycles, the higher. The worst is: Caught > frozen > thawed > cooked > frozen > thawed (like low-cost lobster at grocery shops probably is). High quality degrades with every step!

2. luxurious seafoods – ONLY BUY in case you can afford high quality

Listed here are the top-ticket seafood platter signatures that we strongly advocate solely shopping for in case you can afford good high quality. And in no way will your platter be any much less scrumptious with out them! These will not be regulars on our seafood platter.

1. Lobster (crayfish) – Not value it except you possibly can afford $100+/kg for top of the range lobster. A budget grocery retailer lobsters are garbage (sorry, however they’re). Lobster serving recipes right here.

2. King crab (~$90/kg) – All people loves the massive meaty crab legs! Whereas they’re bought pre-cooked for comfort, we discover the pre-cooked product very hit or miss. King crab is imported which may additionally play an element within the variability of high quality. So we stopped shopping for pre-cooked king crab after too many disappointments for such an costly meals. Need king crab? Greatest purchase uncooked legs and cook dinner it your self.

3. Mud crab (~$90/kg) – Purchase it reside and cook dinner it your self (right here’s tips on how to put together mud crab). You don’t see usually see frozen or cooked mud crab. If shopping for cooked mud crab, test with the vendor how contemporary it’s and when it was alive (we’re suspicious by nature and assume it was half useless so that they cooked it).

3. SEAFOOD WE COOK (SOMETIMES)

Whereas our seafood platter is generally comprised of chilly pre-cooked seafood, if we do have cooked seafood, these are the dishes we mostly embrace.

1. Child octopus – Bought in luggage frozen or uncooked, marinated then BBQ’d till the legs are charred and crispy! Uncommon seafood merchandise that freezes effectively.

2. Mussels – Cooked forward and served at room temperature (it’s so nice!). Mussels are a uncommon seafood merchandise that vac packs effectively. Our favorite model are Kinkawooka blue mussels (very best quality, juiciest!) – search for the purple bag, bought even at common grocery shops.

3. Salt and pepper squid – 3 years within the making, we lastly cracked the proper salt and pepper squid! That is on the RecipeTin Household Christmas menu for this 12 months. Recipe coming earlier than Christmas…

4. STANDARD SIDES

Listed here are the usual sides we serve alongside a seafood platter:

And actually, that’s all we do. We hold it easy to let the seafood shine! Additionally, as a result of Christmas needs to be about be enjoyable not slaving within the kitchen, is our motto. 🙂

5. GOING THE EXTRA MILE

If we’re feeling significantly impressed or have VIP company, we are going to go the additional mile and add “particular” further dishes. Issues we attain for embrace:

• Christmas Baked Salmon – An enormous assertion facet of salmon that’s made for Christmas festivities!

• Crispy Beer Battered Fish – and I exaggerate not after I say they’re crispy and keep crispy!

• Crispy Do-it-yourself Fries – they’re crispy even lengthy after they cool

• Retailer purchased potato gems (tater tots) – I’m not even going to fake we try and make these. We purchase frozen, we love ’em, and I’m not ashamed to inform the world! For particular events, we even deep fry them as an alternative of baking (OMG I do know, you’re horrified).

• Chinese language Honey Prawns – OMG YES!!! Crunchier than you’ve ever had at any Chinese language restaurant, these will blow your thoughts!

• Singapore Chilli Crab – An enormous, large, assertion major.

• Entire Baked Fish – The dill butter sauce is the whole lot….

• Some other seafood or fish recipe – right here’s the full assortment.

5. seafood sauces

With the above contemporary seafood, we merely serve with contemporary lemon wedges and two sauces (recipes right here):

1. Household Favorite Seafood Sauce – A household staple. All people who’s tried this sauce loves it! It’s primarily a mash up of Marie Rose Sauce and Tartare sauce with the added freshness from dill. It’s a bit particular, and all the time successful. 🙂

2. Marie Rose / Thousand Island – The basic pink sauce.

3. Cocktail Seafood Sauce – A piquant pink sauce that goes heavier on the tomato sauce (ketchup).

4. Tartare Sauce – It’s wonderful how a lot better home made tastes, even utilizing jar mayo. But so easy!

5. Thai Chilli Lime Sauce – Tangy with lime and hit of candy chilli, for a beautiful no-mayo contemporary sauce various.

Our customary alternative is the Household Favorite Seafood Sauce plus both Marie Rose or Tartare.

Extra about every seafood merchandise

I warned you I’ve quite a bit to say about seafood!! 😂 So on this part, I’m delving into extra particulars about every.

Prawns

Prawns are a reliable favorite in Australia, and we’re blessed with an abundance of fantastic high quality prawns! The three commonest varieties are:

1. Tiger prawns – Extra salty and savoury.

2. King prawns – Extra of a candy flavour. (You’d count on them to be bigger, however they aren’t all the time!).

3. Banana prawns – Candy, gentle flavour, and infrequently extra economical

We love all of them, and can fortunately eat any of them.

TIPS

• We purchase them pre-cooked – Most Australian prawns are cooked quickly after being caught, which locks in freshness and flavour. So long as they’re contemporary, the standard is great. You may additionally purchase them uncooked and boil your self.

• Be sure you get Australian prawns as a result of the flavour is superior, the flesh is sweeter, and to assist the Australian fishing trade! Whereas most tiger and king prawns are domestically sourced, imported banana prawns are extra frequent. Simply be aware of the show label.

• Keep away from pre-packaged prawns. They are often much less contemporary and pungent, beware! If that’s all you will get, take them out effectively earlier than serving, give them a very good rinse then depart to air dry.

• TOP TIP: Ask for a style check before you purchase!

Moreton Bay bugs – the higher worth lobster

That is one among our gold nugget ideas! 🥰

We desire to eat Moreton Bay bugs as an alternative of lobster. They style just like lobster but are about 70% cheaper at ~$40/kg. In reality, Moreton Bay bugs (and Balmain bugs) are a slipper lobster and are intently associated to rock lobsters, so the flavour similarity isn’t a surprise!

Moreton Bay bugs even have a better meat-to-shell ratio (30-40% yield) than lobster and are simpler to chop. They’re extra compact in form, so simpler to retailer too. They’re caught on the northern a part of Australia’s coast, principally off the coast of Queensland.

We purchase them pre-cooked (orange-coloured) which is the commonest manner they’re bought, although you will get them uncooked (aka “inexperienced”, on the correct under) and cook dinner your self (simply boil them).

Balmain bugs vs Moreton Bay bugs – Balmain Bugs are the opposite species of slipper lobsters bought in Australia. We normally purchase Moreton Bay over Balmain bugs, as we desire the milder flavour, discover the standard normally extra dependable, and so they’re additionally usually bigger. Additionally, simply FYI, regardless of the title, Balmain bugs aren’t really caught within the Balmain space of Sydney! They’re caught throughout the southern shoreline of Australia, although primarily in NSW. However in case you can’t discover Moreton Bay bugs, Balmain bugs is a strong various.

Oysters

Right here in Australia, we’ve got two forms of oysters: Pacific oysters and Sydney Rock oysters. Pacific oysters are usually bigger, with a fleshy, creamy texture. The flavour is clear and gentle. Sydney Rock Oysters are usually smaller, typically with yellow-tinged flesh and have a meatier mouthfeel. The flavour is stronger and extra complicated than Pacific oysters.

I really like each of them!

Each these oysters are grown in numerous areas throughout Australia, and the area during which they’re grown impacts high quality and flavour. I’m significantly keen on Tasmanian-grown oysters (clear flavour with out a bitter end, and a few are gigantic!). Merimbula is a Sydney fine-dining favorite supply as are Port Stephens and Batemans Bay. Boomer Bay is a current one I attempted that I loved as effectively.

Purchase them already shucked (ie. opened) and serve with lemon wedges, that’s all you want. Although, in case you’d wish to attempt a sauce, 3 of our favourites are coming earlier than Christmas!

Crab

I’ve a weird quantity of data to share about crab! Probably as a result of I really like crab nevertheless it’s costly – and it’s a ache to select the meat particularly in case you purchase sure varieties. 😂

So right here’s my ideas on crab:

• Blue swimmer crab (~$35/kg) – This Australian favorite is our desire for worth, flavour and high quality so long as they’re on the big dimension (350g/ 12 oz+). Something smaller and the ratio of meat-to-shell is just too low, and it’s a ache to select the meat out of tiny legs. Purchase it cooked, or purchase uncooked and cook dinner your self (simply boil).

• Spanner crab (~$35/kg) can also be good worth however the crab’s anatomy may be very completely different to blue swimmer crabs. The meat is generally within the physique, which is proportionally massive whereas the claws are small and flat. The crab flesh is deliciously candy. Nonetheless it’s fairly positive and extra crumbly than different crabs. Purchase it cooked. You don’t usually see it uncooked.

• King crab – Individuals love king crab due to the extraordinarily meaty legs and claws, and the agency, candy flesh. But it surely’s costly! We advocate giving frozen cooked king crab a miss. Through the years, we’ve discovered it hit or miss, because it’s typically disappointingly flavourless – such a waste of cash 😭. If you’d like king crab, purchase the raw legs and cook dinner your self. Notice that king crab is generally imported and as a common rule, this could have an effect on reliability of high quality. Extra freezing actually appears to degrade the standard of crab.

• Mud crab – The king of all Aussie crabs! We find it irresistible (particularly Singapore Chilli Crab), however as it’s bought reside it’s fairly costly and it’s a must to cook dinner it your self. You not often see it frozen or pre-cooked. After we do, we’re suspicious because it’s laborious to know the way contemporary the crab was previous to cooking.

Slicing crab for serving – instructions within the recipe card! There’s even a video. 🙂

Sashimi (uncooked fish)

Sure, we do! Completely at dwelling on a seafood platter 🙂

There’s no have to get masses, just a bit bit, for further selection within the platter amongst all that shellfish. We simply go to the sashimi bar on the Sydney Fish Markets and get what appears good or what we really feel like. Kingfish, tuna and salmon are favourites, however we love to combine it up if there are different fascinating fish varieties on provide.

Smoked salmon

A pleasant straightforward one to incorporate on the seafood platter. All people loves it, and once more, it provides to selection and abundance!

The one smoked salmon I get is Huon Salmon. I do know there’s a variety of debate in regards to the sustainability of salmon farming right here in Australia. Nonetheless based mostly on my analysis (and likewise a go to to their farms in Tasmania), I imagine Huon’s farming practices to be extra sustainable than the opposite main model right here in Australia and imported economical manufacturers, and kinder to native wildlife.

Cooked mussels

A current addition to our chilly seafood platter: cooked mussels served at room temperature. It’s so good! They current properly in case you cube up the greens actually small so you possibly can scatter them on the mussels for presentation functions. Serve them within the half shell, spooning some mussel cooking liquor sauce into the shells to maintain them moist and add some beautiful further flavour.

The mussels pictured above had been cooked utilizing this cookbook recipe however this recipe will even work (comparable). Simply bear in mind to cube up the greens further small for a chic look, like pictured above.

Our favorite model of mussels is Kinkawooka which can be found at grocery shops in addition to fish mongers. In comparison with different manufacturers, the mussels are significantly heavier which implies they’re meatier and juicier.

Lobster (really, crayfish)

So, right here’s the factor with lobster. It isn’t a daily on our seafood platters. As famous above, we normally get Moreton Bay bugs as an alternative as a result of it’s so comparable however much better worth and logistically simpler to chop, retailer and many others.

Nonetheless, I do have data to impart about lobster as a result of I’ve a pal who catches native lobsters and shares them with me. Additionally, there was that point throughout the pandemic when our lobster export trade got here to a standstill because of commerce tensions with China, so there was an abundance of lobsters normally bought upwards of $100 at fish mongers going for $20 at common grocery shops.

So I’ve really developed a good quantity of expertise cooking with lobster with out shelling out an extortionate quantity to purchase them!

Shopping for lobster

If you’d like lobster in your seafood platter, simply to reiterate what I’ve mentioned a number of instances earlier, be ready to pay high greenback for it – $100/kg+. There’s actually no level shopping for a budget ones (~$10 tails) at grocery shops, they style like nothing! You might be higher off utilizing that price range for extra prawns.

Select Australian lobster – cooked is nice (it’s boiled freshly caught at sea). Then head over to my lobster recipes to decide on one! There are 6 lobster recipes, all of that are suited to inclusion in a seafood platter, together with tips on how to minimize and put together lobster.

PS It’s crayfish, not lobster

And only for a little bit of meals trivia: What most individuals name “lobster” right here in Australia technically will not be lobsters, they’re crayfish. They’re nearly the identical in look, however they don’t have the enormous pincers that lobsters have within the US and Europe. We don’t have true lobsters right here in Australia. 😊

Why we purchase pre-cooked seafood

Our seafood platter is predominantly chilly seafood that we bought already cooked. The rationale for that is easy – the standard of pre-cooked seafood right here in Australia is great (if you understand what to purchase) and it’s handy.

If you happen to’re considering – certainly uncooked seafood I cook dinner myself goes to be higher – it may be true, nevertheless it’s usually pricier and additional work to arrange!

Really, pre-cooked seafood could be a number of the finest tasting seafood you purchase as a result of it’s boiled at sea as quickly as it’s caught, locking in contemporary flavour when it’s at its prime. Prawns are a fantastic instance of this, with most prawns bought at fish mongers right here in Australia bought pre-cooked.

Pre-cooking additionally offers with the logistical problem related to how extremely perishable seafood is as a result of it extends the shelf life, in addition to making the seafood extra reasonably priced for shoppers.

The place I purchase seafood

For particular events, I am going to the Sydney Fish Markets the place you get higher choice and extra persistently increased high quality. However on a day after day foundation, I simply go to my native fish monger.

I usually don’t purchase seafood from the grocery retailer, simply because I discover the standard is just not that nice and isn’t all the time dealt with with the care it needs to be.

I do suppose although that right here in Australia, we’re very fortunate to have an abundance of excellent high quality seafood, so even seafood from grocery shops is definitely not that unhealthy. I’m only a bit fussy – I’d somewhat take pleasure in seafood much less usually and spend somewhat extra to get good high quality seafood after I do. That’s simply the best way I roll. 🙂

How we put collectively the seafood platter

And with all that data and opinions shared, we lastly arrive on the serving and consuming half!

For the RecipeTin Household, one of many issues that appeals to us a couple of seafood platter is that it’s primarily no-cook, and it’s a chilly major which is good for decent summer time Aussie Christmases. So that you actually pull it out of the fridge, pile it up onto platters then serve!

OK, OK. I can provide somewhat extra steerage right here, in case you’re . Right here we go:

1. Ice mattress – If we’ve got ice, we are going to unfold that onto an enormous serving platter, tray or a number of plates. This not solely retains the seafood chilly, but in addition gives a pleasant non-slip mattress to place the seafood on.

2. Assembling – Pile the seafood on the ice, randomly scatter lemon wedges round then nestle in bowls of sauces. Just a few sprigs of parsley may additionally make it onto the platter – however that’s actually going above and past. 😂

Laying out the seafood

There’s no guidelines for the best way I lay out the seafood, besides logistical issues:

• Oysters laid out principally in a single layer or fastidiously shingled to keep away from the oyster juices from spilling

• Mussels laid out the identical as oysters so the sauce stays in with out spilling

• Prawns, Moreton Bay bugs and crab – piled excessive (reserve the crab carapace (high shell) for adornment)

• Sashimi – fanned out

• Smoked salmon – randomly draped round

Issues of serving (tip: finger bowls!)

To serve, we put the platters out together with loads of napkins, bowls for discarded shells and finger bowls of water with lemon slices for individuals to dip their fingers in for a short clear earlier than diving again in for extra seafood.

How else can I allow you to?

And with that, I believe I’m performed! Or – am I? Are there any crucial issues I’ve missed? Is there different seafood you’d wish to find out about? Reminiscent of, let’s say, abalone. A extremely prized delicacy right here in Australia – why doesn’t it make our minimize, it’s possible you’ll be questioning??

This and another questions you may have, please depart them under and we are going to do our greatest to deal with them and replace this put up with further data. I can’t promise I’ll proceed to do that past Christmas 2023, however I can promise that we are going to monitor questions and replace this put up main as much as Christmas Day. As a result of the entire goal of doing at this time’s put up is to assist readers who need to put collectively a tremendous seafood platter!

See in put up for extra ideas and ideas on every merchandise listed. Abstract factors under!

1. Prawns – Tiger, king and banana prawns in Australia are all nice, although if I needed to decide one I’d select tiger prawns (I really like the salty barely extra intense flavour). Be careful for imported – Australian prawns are superior in flavour.
2. Oyster – Each Sydney Rock (smaller, stronger flavour) and Pacific (fleshier, cleaner flavour) oysters are nice. These are the 2 varieties right here in Australia. The standard and flavour comes right down to the place and the way they’re grown.
3. Moreton Bay bugs – The “higher worth lobster”!. At ~$40/kg, they’re simpler to chop, to eat and have a better meat-to-shell ratio. There’s actually no level getting low-cost lobster, tastes of nothing. If you happen to get lobster, it’s good to spend $100/kg+. Don’t trouble with low-cost lobster!
4. Crab – Blue swimmer crabs for one of the best for flavour (in our view) and worth, however don’t get small ones <350g/12oz, it’s a ache to get the meat out. Spanner crab can also be nice however all of the meat is within the shell (minimize per similar instructions). Mud crab and king crab – please learn in put up for our view on these (purchase uncooked, make certain it’s Australian, and cook dinner your self), they’re costly so get it proper!
