MikeyBoy456 0 Posted June 15, 2009 Report Share Posted June 15, 2009 ive seen the guy off river cottage eat a grass carp he caught it in the lake and then ran it over to a bath with fresh water flowing into it and served it to some high class people and i think they liked it. if you are going to eat one id suggest doing what he done and leave it in a bath with fresh flowing water Quote Link to post
farlap 19 Posted June 15, 2009 Report Share Posted June 15, 2009 I had an Aupair from Czech Republic stay with us for a while. He told us of their traditions, one of which was eating Carp at Christmas ( Christmas Eve) They would keep it alive in their bath for a week before eating to clean it out and remove the mossy taste. It didn't sound very appealing to me but its more tradition and religion and not eating meat before Christmas . From what I have been told.. it doesn't taste very nice... muddy.. and yes.. very bony ! yup....we/they do it tastes OK. Quote Link to post

adam s 32 Posted July 2, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 2, 2009 My dads mate says that his mother picks all of the bones out of the carp and make fish cakes out of it. He says it tastes alright but i wouldn't try it. Quote Link to post
