monkfish tail
Oes 'na rywun yn deall eu pysgod?
Ga i gadarnhau mai "môr lyffant" yw'r monkfish yr ydych
chi'n bwyta'i gynffon?
monkfish: (Squatina squatina): maelgi
= angler fish: môr lyffant
Monkfish (or Headfish) is
the English name of a number of types of fish in the northwest Atlantic, most
notably the species of the anglerfish genus Lophius and the angelshark genus Squatina.
....
In Europe and North America, the texture of the tail
meat of fish of the genus Lophius, is sometimes compared to lobster
tail and has been alluded to as the "poor man's
lobster,"
Felly mae'n ymddangos yn debyg mai "cynffon môr
lyffant" sy'n gywir ond fe hoffwn i gael
cadarnhad!
