BATON ROUGE, La. (AP) - A Louisiana chef hopes to control invasive Asian carp by marketing them as Silverfin fish cakes.

The Louisiana Department of Wildlife and Fisheries said in a news release Thursday that Chef Philippe Parola's Silverfin Group Inc. will sell the fish cakes nationally to restaurants, caterers and schools, primarily through SYSCO food distributors.

Parola has also been working with Illinois' Department of Natural Resources and the University of Illinois' food service director, and a recent launch luncheon was held at the University of Illinois.
