It doesn't get any fresher than just pulled from the Sea of Cortez. Spicy Sea Bass with Cucumber, it was pretty tasty. Also made some California Rolls with imitation crab which I imported directly from California (I'm thinking the local hermit crabs wouldn't make good California Roll) Did a little research about the risks involved and found that the parasite Anisakis does live in shore fish of the area, it cannot reproduce in humans but can cause some nasty gastro reactions. It lives in the intestines of the fish but migrates into the flesh after the fish dies where you can injest it. By gutting the fish immediately after catching you can minimize your risk. I also chopped it and seasoned it HEAVILY with red pepper flakes, thought that might help. As far as I know, no one got sick ~ that's a good thing :D
