Many fishermen swear by walleye meat when they want to cook a good dish. However, the pike does not give up its place and its meat is tasty.
During a recent visit to the Domaine d’Oskélanéo outfitter, the friendly owners made me taste two exquisite and tasty dishes with these fish unloved by many. They were kind enough to share them with the readers of the Journal.
