On our way out of Twizel (near Mt. Cook in NZ) we passed a salmon farm--you could feed them for free and then buy either smoked or fresh salmon. Of course, we had to stop! Hesitant at first about feeding the salmon, we accepted the challenge. Walking over to a seemingly placid pool we searched for any visual sign of salmon in there. Finally one of us threw a piece of food in and wow!!! those salmon were huge and they were jumpers. Then of course it became quite the game to get them to leap and twist over each other to get the food.
Jocelyn thought she was far enough away from the rest of us who had food, but alas no, we very nicely tossed the food to the far side of the pond where she was so she too could enjoy the show!
Sooo now to the yummy part. We also bought a half of a salmon--smoked of course! and oh wow it was by far the best smoked salmon I have ever had. They use rum in their smoking process--hmm that must be the reason!
Yummmyyyyyy
