Striper Liver
This weekend a couple of my friends who are adventurous eaters decided to sample the liver of a 29 lb bass we landed.
After filleting, they each sampled it raw... I took a pass. They claim it tastes like scallops.
That evening we sauteed the rest of it and I must say it was delicious.
As we were eating, I pointed out that we were likely consuming a rather concentrated amount of mercury... Oh well, a couple of shots of Cabo Wabo and we moved on...
The following day, they tried raw bluefish liver... Not quite as good.
Anyone know if this is problematic?

Try the monkfish liver if you get a chance. That's really good and rich.
If you don't eat it all the time, it should be ok. Kinda like Folie Gras, lobster and crab tomalley. If you have the opportunity then go for it but I wouldn't eat it more than say 3 times a month.

its probably healthy (cod liver oil is).
may have unhealthy amounts of Vitamin A, but probably not.

Monkfish liver or ankimo in Japan is fantastic. It is like eating foie gras. It is better in the winter months, Feb and March because the liver has a lot more fat.

I remember reading in some fishing book about the author finding out how good striper liver was. I'll have to look tonight and see who.

I looked it up last night. The book is The Saltwater Fisherman's Favorite Four by O.H.P. Rodman
