Chinese chefs advise using plenty of ginger when preparing snakehead.
Are top-of-the-food-chain fish better tasting than other varieties? Real question.
I wouldn't necessarily say that since here in S.E. Michigan the two top fish of choice are the walleye and perch.
The top of the chain fish in Lake St. Clair are the muskies that are reaching legendary size due mainly to fishermen catching and releasing them. Recently up in Bellaire, a fisherman caught a 59 inch, 59 lb. muskie on only 8 lb. test line which was a state record.
Some fishermen do eat them but most just release them.....
