Fish

Collar

Collar of Whiting is the fatty band behind the gills, excellent grilled on the bone. Collagen bastes the meat. Serve with salt and citrus; eat near the bone. Keep whiting collar iced until cooking; pat dry for browning, and stop when just opaque. Frying, steaming, pies, and gentle baking suit the cut. Season with salt, acid, and fat that frame delicate thin fillet.
