The evening started with a showing of ‘A Taste of The Salt’, the PFSA’s film about local fisheries. Matt Corner from turned tuna from Sole of Discretion lemon sole, squid and scallops from RG Seafoods and dogfish from Antony Newcombe into some fantastic recipes. Antony Newcombe, of Forgotten Corner Fish and Crab is Kingsand’s 15-year-old fisherman who fishes using a non-powered vessel straight off the beach. Ant chatted about his young life in fishing and demonstrated how to cook his spider crab-cake recipe. It was a great evening of seafood and discussion about the importance of supporting local.
