The creme is the perfect texture and flavor to complement rockfish (in our case), elevating fish tacos to the level they deserve. We deconstructed ours, serving the rockfish separately as a fillet, plated with crisped whole corn tortillas , a salad of fresh garden kale and red cabbage, and the creme on the side: beautiful! and tasty. (Note: we cooked the rockfish stovetop in cast iron, after patting it dry, salting and peppering it lightly and dusting it with flour and corn meal.) Using just picked cilantro from the garden added an extra freshness. Really a simple, lovely combination of tastes, colors and textures.
