Fish & Brewis


In my family Christmas morning breakfast has, for as long as I can remember, been a traditional fisherman's meal of Fish and Brewis (pronounced 'bruise') expertly prepared by my Dad.

It consists of flakey salt cod (readily available on the ships, salted for preservation), brewis (Purity brand hard tack, an extremely hard biscuit of flour and water that is soaked over night until it is roughly the consistency of boiled potatoes, another staple on the ships for its self-life– virtually indestructable and unspoilable) and...





scrunchions (salt pork belly that is diced and rendered down to crispy chunks of heavenly salty bacon).

Sounds questionable, but as the bf can attest it's "comfort seafood in breakfast form."


Served this year with the traditional partridgeberry jam and mixed melon and blueberries marinated in lime juice, mint and rum....like a mojito fruit salad.

    where you'll be ɑvle tօ simрly thrst upon the left analog
    stick and see the actual SR-71 gο away in couple of seconds as well
    as ready to do some reconnaissance in the place that the enemy hіdes.
