Best Shad Roe Pan Fried With Bacon Recipes
SHAD ROE WITH BACON
Steps:
- Cut the pairs of roe in half, taking care not to damage the membrane. Wipe them dry with paper towels and set aside.
- Cook the bacon in a large skillet (preferably cast iron) and drain on paper towels. Pour the fat from the skillet and wipe the pan with a paper towel.
- Add the oil and butter to the skillet and when hot, add the roe and saute on both sides until lightly browned but pinkish in the middle. Do not overcook or the roe will be dry. Season with salt and pepper and serve garnished with lemon.

FRIED SHAD ROE
A rich dish just lovely served with bacon. The whole roe actually consists of two egg sacs connected by blood vessels and membranes, which must be cut away. The roe is encased in a taut crispy covering like the casing of a great sausage. Once the membranes are cut away, you have two options: open the roe sac or leave it whole. The only reason for opening it would be to add it to scrambled eggs as the egg grains within become tough and gritty if exposed to direct heat. That's why most recipes call for broiling or pan-frying a whole shad roe, often dredged in flour. When done, the roe should still be faintly red at the very center, and its texture will be creamy and smooth. From the Southern chapter of the United States Regional Cookbook, Culinary Arts Institute of Chicago, 1947. Cooking time is approximate.
