Unusual. Are they processed that way? Coconut dumplings sounds good.

[@Tropicalbliss45]

The “black fish” is actually a type of whale meat. Whale meat is dark red. The meat is salted and hung out in the sun to dry near the sea - it dries black. It’s a cultural thing, they can only catch about two per year and it’s not caught all year, only a small window of time. This has been going on for over a hundred years.

[@samsgiftedhands3998]

@@Tropicalbliss45 Thank you for the quick response. I appreciate it!

Hi Shani, yes it has a similiar taste to Jersey. It's seasonal in SVG that's why a lot of people do not know much about it. Hopefully one day you will taste it. Thank you!

Is it okay to reuse the water used to boil the blackfish? it might have high amounts of mercury since blackfish are whales

[@rudysylvester9887]

Am not from svg so may i ask a question. What is black fish?

[@samsgiftedhands3998]

Blackfish is from pilot whales. The fishers in Barrouallie (one of the towns in SVG) dry and salt the flesh of the pilot whales in the sun, and the end result are the blackfish as shown in the video. It is chewy and the best way is to shred it finely, after boiling and prepare it as it is in the video with lots of vegetables or less if you prefer.

[@rudysylvester9887]

Ok. I never knew. Down here in DA 🇩🇲 whales are an endangered species. However Thanks very much for the enlightment. I do appreciate
