I like both of these two sauces alot...
Cholula
Green Tabasco
I had a friend growing up whose parents were both from the Phillipine Islands. One day he and I stopped at his house to get some homemade cantelope popsicles and we had several mullet we caught that were destined for bait after the popsicle cool down. His mother saw the mullet and went apeshit. "YOU NO USE FOR BAIT! IS GOOD EAT! I COOK FOR YOU" She insisted we give her the mullet and threatened to hold out on the popsicles. I caved in under the summer heat and gave em up(no big deal I could get more). She commenced to beating them flat with a wooden mallet.(heads, guts, bones, eyes, entrails, and all) She battered them with some ancient secret recipe I could have cared less about at the time as I was about to vomit at the thought of eating them whole. Well, lemme tell you. She cooked them to a near burnt crisp and the smell from the fryer sparked my curiosity.
They were delicious. Who would a thunk it? I will never forget those Cantelope popsicles. I swapped mullet for popsicles for the rest of the summer. Despite the good taste of the fried mullet I could never get used to chomping down the bones and head. Haven't had fried mullet since. I sure wish I could get some more of those popsicles though.
