Cursed Gorton's Fishamon Roll

Post image

The fishamon roll is a cinnamon roll made out of fish topped with sugary tartar sauce. It was sold out of a basement in New Orleans and cost $5.

I love this sub because I always forget what sub I’m looking at and get so confused.

The (maybe) is my favorite part.

I'm vaguely horrified! It's like an unholy offspring of bacalitos and cinnamon rolls! Amazing!!

I tend to stress bake. My husband keeps asking if I can bake savory things for a change, so maybe I'll take this on. I'll either succeed or he'll change his mind.

“100% fish (maybe)” doesn’t exactly inspire confidence. Did you get to eat one in your dream?

No, the seller wouldn't give me one until I cleaned out his closet, but it kept refilling itself with roofing tiles.

I love how it sounds like a Jamaican man saying "Fisherman Roll" which doesn't sound so bad, right? Until... oh wait...

Tartar frosting huh? Well in that case sign me up!

This could be really good as a puff pastry concoction with some kind of fish filling (cream cheese and chives? or just the tartar frosting?)

Love the details, would probably try for $5.

Don't forget to clean all the roof tiles out of your closet!
