Its uses the same principle when we grill corn. We strip the corn of the husk but leave at least 2-3 layers of it. Then we will soak it in water(in the timba of course, while waiting for the charcoal)before grilling. It prevents the corn from burning and from drying out. The newspaper stuff is a good idea.

He took several sheets of newspaper (!!), put in a cleaned fish, added herbs, tomatoes, salt, etc. Folded the paper tight.... then dunked the whole package in water before putting it on the grill! While the outer layers were a mess, the inner papers were quite presentable for a picnic. I haven't had the guts to try it out myself though...

JoAnn, I have no formal cooking training whatsoever, so don't take me seriously. anna gan, thanks for that explanation...I have learned something today.
