Winston came to work for us in 1991. He was our first Japanese fishing guide and brought a new element to the operation. Not only was he a first class guide, but he was somewhat of a chef. And he was dynamite in the garnishing department! After he had been around for a couple of weeks, I kept finding him lurking in my pantry. Now the pantry is just NOT where most of our guides hang out. Finally, one day I asked if there was anything he needed. “Well,” he said, “I need the ingredients for sweet ‘n’ sour fish.” This was a new one to me but I agreed to let him raid the pantry as long as I got to taste the end result. This recipe has since become a standard on shore lunches (Sweet ‘N’ Sour Pike) at North Knife Lake Lodge and at home when we have company, for both Marie and I. ~ Helen

Hi, I bought this recipe book many years ago and have been making Winnie’s fish recipe ever since. It is our #1 fish dish! Thanks for sharing it.
