Top Chef Season Five winner Hosea Rosenberg held a demonstration and lecture for lucky students at the Louisiana Culinary Institute on Monday afternoon. In addition to showing off delectable dishes like wild king salmon with sweet potato hash, Rosenberg spoke about the importance of sustainable seafood in today’s restaurant market. For instance, a free iPhone and iPod Touch app from the Monterey Bay Aquarium called “Seafood Watch” can help consumers make more informed choices right at the table. Seafood Watch stays updated with the latest news and info about fishing practices, and splits seafood into categories from super-green (seafood that’s farmed in extremely sustainable ways) to avoid (seafood that’s fished in a way that’s environmentally unsafe). The app even lets you choose your region, so you can tell which seafood is best for the Gulf.
