Brown Butter Perch Recipe

Recipesfull introduces to you: Popular Recipes. (Brown Butter Perch Recipe). I love perch. I love everything about them--the sweet, delicate flavor, the striking coloration, and the stubborn fight they put up for their size. The key here is getting the butter to a perfect nutty brown. Technically it's still butter, but something happens when it's toasted like this, and it really does become another ingredient altogether.
