: : IMBB No. 5 ~ Catch of the Day : :
For IMBB No. 5, we are doing the fish. Oh yes. Smelly fish. Pungent fish. Glorious fish. We are making it thedish catch of the day on THE DAY. The day is 20 June 2004.
Now, what is IMBB? An acronym for Is my Blog Burning, it started off as an idea from Alberto to have a blog cooking day where a theme is selected and everyone makes a dish centered around the theme. We've had soups, tartines, cakes and rice dishes from all over the world, serve in different and yet delicious ways. If there ever was a time that an ordour option where smells can be sent via the internet be invented, this would be a great time to do so. Not to mention that the last IMBB on rice saw more than 50 entries on rice alone!
So, for no. 5, let's make something from fish. Yeah yeah, it sounds like something out of the Iron Chef series. Note that only the 4th edition and this one is based on a cooking ingredient and the previous 3 editions were more on the type of dish. Still, it's an amazing event and the number of participants just keeps growing and growing and growing.
How to do it? Well, it's easy. Post up a writeup with recipe on a dish where fish is one of the ingredients anywhere on your blog or website. Drop me a comment or an email to say where the link is and I will post up the links the following day. If you do not have a weblog, you can email me your pictures at myremi@gmail.com along with the writeup and I will post it up on my blog for you. Even if you would like to share a favourite recipe, I would love to hear about it and can easily post it up for you.
You can use any fish ingredient, be it fresh fish, frozen fish, canned fish, fish balls, fish cakes, fish patties, fish skin or fish soy sauce. Just be fishy as fishy as you want your dish to be. Only rule here is to use fishy fishy fish fish.
It's fun. Do join us. We love to hear from you on how your cooking preparation and your meal went. So, let's make it a date to have a huge even on 20 June!
Cheerio!

Juicy, sweeeeeeet!
Great idea. We'll be out of town, but within the Internet's reach, so I'll make the fish that week and post from the southern reaches of Oregon. Count me in!

This will be my first and coincides with my weekend of birthday festivities so it'll have to be something a bit special then.

Wena, I'm already trying out different ways to cook the fish I've been purchasing at the market. This promises to be yet another great "IMBB?" See you on the 20th! (your time, that is) ;-)
Cheers!

Hi Wena,
having only just started my own blog beginning of May, I missed out on the previous ones - fish will be my first, and what better way to start! I am already holding secret meetings with my fishmonger, so count me in for the big event!!!

I missed the rice IMBB by a day, and I promised that I'd find out when the next was, but once again, I missed it by a day. So how do I find out who's hosting the next IMBB?
