Yes Carp can and is eaten all over the world. Even farm raised for the = purpose of eating. In Japan while "some" carp is eaten, most of the fish eaten are = sal****er so you won't see it too often. In China, particularly inland, carp is a very important food fish. They = fry up the whole fish crispy then pour a brown sauce over it. Israel has been farm raising Carp for decades. Hungarians make a baked = carp with paprika. Anyone from Germany to the Eastern European countries knows Carp as a food fish. Carp is an important ingredient in the Jewish "Gefilite = Fish". Once I was fishing and landed a carp..maybe 10 lbs. Some guy came up to = me and asked me if he could have it. Naturally I gave it to him. I asked him where he = was from as he had an accent and he said "Yugoslavia". Some delicatessens that carry a wide variety of smoked fish sometimes = carry "sable". This is smoked carp. Carp tend to taste muddy.Some people keep a carp alive in a tub for a = couple of days in the hopes of getting the "muddyness" out. = Others,especially Europeans say to eat only Winter Carp cause they dont pick up the the muddy smell. I tried Carp once. Simply panfried. Tasted like a boring nondescript = "fish". I suppose if I were starving it might taste good. If I ever try it again I think I will smoke it. |

Not my favorite, but it's ok smoked and served with horseradish whipped cream. I've heard that described as North German bar fare. Enough beer and it will taste wunderbar! Jack Lager |

Since when does Ugly = Un-eatable or bad tasting? Is a catfish not even more ugly (IMO) Ever seen a grouper? It is a very tasty fish and is FAR uglier than any carp. Farm raised fresh carp is supposed to be good, but wild carp supposedly has a weird after taste but I've never tried either one. However, I've had smoked carp before and while it was not bad, it was nothing spectacular. I would never _not_ try a new food just because the animal or plant it came from was "Ugly."

I don't know about a catfish being uglier than a carp, but have a look at a monkfish sometime. Now that is a disgusting looking fish, but it tastes great. A lot of people are turned off by eels, but they are very tasty. Good smoked eel is a real treat. |

Koi which is a special type of carp is very expensive to eat.

You should avoid the huge size carp abd select one betweeb 500g to 1.5
kg. The one caught in river are better than that raised in muddy ponds because they don't stink or stink less. In Vietnam carps are cooked three ways. 1)Ca' Che'p Chie^n ro`n Deep fried with whole fish including the head with scales on and eaten when crispy with a lot of lettuces, coriander leaves, mint leaves and fresh lemon. Excellent tast but be careful about the tiny bones. 2)Ca' Che'p Kho Rie^`ng=Cook in the clay pots. Fish has to be carefully scaled.then cut into 1.5 inch thick slices in bean paste mixed with fish sauce preferably Phu Quoc with Galanga, ginger and whole black pepper added. Sopme people like to add sme sugar. I don't !-be careful of the tiny bones 3)Canh Chua Ca' Che'p: A vietnamese version of Thai Tom Yum. sour fish/shrimp soup. Carp must be scaled and cut in slices as in #2. A fish stock should be made by boiling the carp head in chicken broth containing lemon juice or japanese rice vinegar, star fruit , DO NOT USE TAMARIND FRUIT because it makes the soup turbid and un-appealing garlic, red pepper slices and in moderate amount i.e., 10% of what the Thai used.. sliced tomatos,the carp slices cleaned of scales should be placed in boiling stock until the flesh is flaky and can be teased out with chopsticks or a fork. Try flaking with the largest slice. When it is done the other slices are done to. Cut off heat. Serve in big bowl decorated with red carp fish at the bottom (inside view)and on the side of bowl. Use fresh banana flower cut in thin slices as salad. In us use the best crispy roman salad in addition to coriander leaves , shallots. It taste like trout but stronger tast which pleased with unprejudiced practice Bon Appetit!, Buno Appetito, A(n NGon !

You should avoid the huge size carp abd select one betweeb 500g to 1.5
kg. The one caught in river are better than that raised in muddy ponds because they don't stink or stink less. In Vietnam carps are cooked three ways. 1)Ca' Che'p Chie^n ro`n Deep fried with whole fish including the head with scales on and eaten when crispy with a lot of lettuces, coriander leaves, mint leaves and fresh lemon. Excellent tast but be careful about the tiny bones. 2)Ca' Che'p Kho Rie^`ng=Cook in the clay pots. Fish has to be carefully scaled.then cut into 1.5 inch thick slices in bean paste mixed with fish sauce preferably Phu Quoc with Galanga, ginger and whole black pepper added. Sopme people like to add sme sugar. I don't !-be careful of the tiny bones 3)Canh Chua Ca' Che'p: A vietnamese version of Thai Tom Yum. sour fish/shrimp soup. Carp must be scaled and cut in slices as in #2. A fish stock should be made by boiling the carp head in chicken broth containing lemon juice or japanese rice vinegar, star fruit , DO NOT USE TAMARIND FRUIT because it makes the soup turbid and un-appealing garlic, red pepper slices and in moderate amount i.e., 10% of what the Thai used.. sliced tomatos,the carp slices cleaned of scales should be placed in boiling stock until the flesh is flaky and can be teased out with chopsticks or a fork. Try flaking with the largest slice. When it is done the other slices are done to. Cut off heat. Serve in big bowl decorated with red carp fish at the bottom (inside view)and on the side of bowl. Use fresh banana flower cut in thin slices as salad. In us use the best crispy roman salad in addition to coriander leaves , shallots. It taste like trout but stronger tast which pleased with unprejudiced practice Bon Appetit!, Buno Appetito, A(n NGon !
