News Americas, NEW YORK, NY, Fri. Mar. 22, 2019: Gilbaka, also known as “Gillbacker,” is a scale-less saltwater fish that is part of the catfish family. It is found in the muddy sea bottoms of coastal rivers from Guyana to northern Brazil. This sea catfish can grow to enormous sizes and is quite meaty in texture. It is by no means a “pretty” looking fish, but it is quite delicious. Many Guyanese nationals in particular are fond of currying this fish. Here is the recipe from ‘Caribbean Curries’ by Felicia J. Persaud that is available exclusively on Amazon. Here’s what you will need to make it.
