I got a new toy and I tried it out this week. After receiving a gift certificate to the “Cook’s Corner” in Sterling in October, my daughter and I went there and we found the cutest gadgets you have ever seen.

What caught my eye immediately was a bright, shiny, copper barbecue fish basket. I had not used it because, for one, I don’t especially like to cook fish, but mainly, because the beautiful copper fish basket looked so pretty hanging on my kitchen wall.

It is about 2 feet long, hinged in the middle. It has crisscross sides that fold together. You put your fish inside, latch it loosely and either lay it on the grill or hold it over the top.
