    I spent Christmas in Poland last year and tried carp. It was delicious. It tasted kind of sweet and the flavour was quite unlike any other fish I’ve eaten.

    Over here we have a recipe to cook a carp that goes back a long ways:
    Preheat your oven to 400F.
    Get an oak board big enough to place your carp on.
    Place carp on board and season with salt, pepper, and lemon juice.
    Bake for 1 hour.
    Remove carp and eat the board.

    There is a huge demand for this in Asia as well. While all this going on, people in America is throwing millions of these fish away; then complain of trade imbalance . Sell these fish to Europe and Asia

    It really does baffle me how the western countries make carp out to be something exotic and non edible. The fish has been on dining tables since human learned how to cook

      Carps are fantastic, I don't know how they got out of hand. Eating them would be good for the environment and it would be a cheap alternative to other pollution heavy proteins.

    We have a similar fish in our country ( Colombia) The Cachama (or Pacu). They eat just about everything, can survive in poluted low oxygen waters and can grow up to 20 Kg (44 Lbs in american ). But they are bony as heck and have human like teeth.

    Chinese have eaten carp for thousands of years, and people in Central and Eastern Europe and Turkey have also eaten carp for hundreds of years. There are many ways to deal with the muddy taste of carp, but our methods are still helpless for carp produced in the United States and Australia.
    And what's even more sad is that the British and Germans are almost the least good at cooking.

    "how poland turns carp into fine dining". Meanwhile the Chinese who's been eating carp for 5000 years and praising carp meat in poems for 5000 years giving european the side eye. Carp is one of the few renewable and cheap to raise fish. In east asia, many regions traditionally have aquacultures combining rice fields with carp, a stable protein source for millennia.
