DOOR COUNTY FISH BOIL



Door County Fish Boil image

The Door County fish boil is the Midwest's version of the classic crab boil, featuring tender whitefish and potatoes boiled in a large pot.

Provided by Fox Valley Foodie

Categories     Main

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 quarts water
1 cup kosher salt (divided)
12 small baby red potatoes
1 large yellow onion (quartered)
1 pound whitefish fillets (cut into 3 inch pieces)
1 packet Crab Boil seasoning (optional)
2 tablespoons melted butter (melted)
1 Lemon

Steps:

  • Fill a large pot with four quarts of water along with 1/2 cup of salt and bring to a boil over high heat on your stovetop.
  • Add the potatoes and onion, along with seafood boil seasoning wrapped in cheesecloth or placed in a tea diffuser, if desired. Boil until potatoes are fork tender, approximately 20-30 minutes.
  • When the potatoes are soft, add the fish and the remaining 1/2 cup of salt. Boil for 3-5 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through.
  • When the fish is done, drain the water in a colander and return fish, onion, and potatoes to the pot. Discard the seasoning.
  • Add butter to the pot and gently stir to evenly coat everything.
  • Serve on plates with sliced lemon. (Alternatively, lemon juice can be squeezed into the pot when the butter is added)

DOOR COUNTY FISH BOIL (SORT OF.....)



Door County Fish Boil (Sort Of.....) image

If you have never experienced an outdoor Door County Fish Boil, you have NO idea what you're missing!!! Door County is the WI penisula, north of Green Bay. It's a VERY popular tourist destination & a fish boil is an absolute must before you leave!!! Several restaurants, along with periodic civic groups, in the county serve it using delicious fresh fish from the waters of Lake Superior or Lake Michigan & it usually consists of Whitefish or Lake Trout. Many folks that don't like fish, LOVE the Door County Fish Boils. This recipe is for making it on the indoor stove instead of an outdoor fire...MUCH safer this way. NOTES:You will need a large kettle with a cover & a wire-type basket for this. FRESH fish is preferred, but frozen fish that has been thawed, can be used. If using Whitefish, be sure all scales are removed.
