I haven't ate any "Choupique" in a long time, but I can tell you, if prepared properly they are pretty dang good. The flesh is in small pockets of sinuous layers, so you have to scrape the meat out to get past the slime. But once you have a bowl full of pure meat, add some boiled potatoes, onions, green onion and seasonings, mix it all together and make patties, roll that in flour and fry them. A mess of homemade fries and hushpuppies...mmmmmmmm.
