Hamachi Kama - Yellowtail collar

[Steve-O]

Not my recipe but it sure looks good and makes me want to head west next summer when the Yellowtail are running.

Have any of you from the recent long range trip with Alan T and crew tried this?

Would love to hear about it.

I almost always get this when it is on the menu even though I love shashimi/sushi as well.  Usually very fatty.  I absolutely love collars of almost any fish e.g., salmon, halibut, yellowtail.  When my buddies are done cleaning their fish I usually take the parts they are not utilizing bellies, backbones, collars, cheeks, and not just for soup.  My daughter has a particular affinity for a big bbqed salmon head.

This recipe sounds great for the Hamachi Collars!

I've had it on fresh King Salmon collars from the Kenai Peninsula this summer, FANTASTIC!!!!

Good luck,

I don't eat bait, but I took every collar I could get from the first AT trip. I smoked the bonito collars and grilled the hamachi, quite possibly my favorite part of the fish. My favorite part of a shark is all the meat around the outside of the skull, best part of a halibut is the cheeks...you got the idea.
