Mineral Springs Seafood By The Bay

6 Standout Smoked Fish Dips on Florida's Forgotten Coast

"As with so many old Florida fish huts, you could easily miss Mineral Springs Seafood Market if you aren’t looking. The only signal is a sign reading, “That place with the dip.” The block building shrouded with wisps of smoke and the scent of slow-burning wood, houses the best smoked fish dip anywhere, in my opinion. It isn’t the purist smoked mullet dip so rooted in this area, but it is in keeping with the tradition of using all the leftover fish to make something delicious. It might be amberjack, kingfish, mullet, or whatever they have leftover after processing fish. The fish is seasoned well before smoking and no dip ever tastes the same." - Carrie Honaker
