I’m really scared to ask, but how exactly did they learn this?
I wouldn’t be surprised if it was simply a matter of someone knowing that oil burns and noticing how oily the fish is, then having the brilliant idea of trying to light a fish on fire (alcohol may have been involved).
That’s how I like to imagine it, anyway.
This fish cooks itself.
“This shit is oily! Hey Bob, can I borrow a match for my pipe?”
Fumbles lit match.
“I love the smell of burnt fish in the morning.”
The eulachon (/ju:ləkon/ (Thaleichthys pacificus), also spelled oolichan /'u:lika:n/, ooligan /'u:ligən/, hooligan /'hu:ligən/), or the candlefish
Hooligan fish. Ok.
Breakfast is served
