Description
Stop spending fifty dollars a pound on lobster when the exact sweet, firm, and briny qualities you are craving are sitting right next to it for a fraction of the price. Wade Sharklow spent years behind a fish counter watching people walk past the best values in the building, and in this video, he breaks down the seven cheap seafood alternatives that completely beat lobster at its own game. From skate wing that flakes like crab legs to monkfish medallions that slice like scallops, you will learn how to shop smarter, skip the marketing hype, and cook incredible seafood without breaking the bank.
