Pickled Pike

[Guest]

Right out of high school (100yrs ago) I rented a cabin on Cross Lake with some friends. After a couple of days the caretaker stopped by to see how us city boys were doing. Well, he dropped off these two large jars of what he called pickled-pike. It was the most disgusting looking stuff we ever saw, but delicious!! I've never had any since, but intend to try this recipe I found by a fisherman who calls himself ROADKILL.

Pickled Pike, 1 Serving, Raw fish-chilled, 2 Tbs Salt, 1Onion-sliced, 1/2c Sugar, 2 tsp mixed spices of choice, Bottle of white vinegar. You can use almost any type of fish, but pike is best. Clean fish and cut into small pieces. Fill a quart jar 3/4 full of fish. Add salt, onion, sugar and spices, fill with vinegar to top. Cap tightly and refrigerate. Shake jar every day for 4 days. Let set a week or so for best taste. This keeps for a couple of months.
