monk fish recipes

It is important that you observe how the particular shop stores and displays the fishes they sell. Fish should be stored properly resting or partially buried in ice under sanitary conditions. Whole fresh fish have gills that are still pink or red. The fishs eyes are clear and shiny and its scales are reflective. If the fish has already been precut into filets or steaks, it should not be brown or dry and it should be moist.

A freshly caught fish can be cooked in a thousand and one ways. Any fisherman worth his salt has his own unique way of cooking a freshly caught trout, salmon or whatever fish he caught. So fisherman all across the country has been handed down methods of cooking fish. Here are some tips to get the best out of your fish.

* Cook it as soon as possible to minimize the loss of juices.

* When baking fish, prepare the marinade, preheat the oven, and put the fish in for the prescribed amount of time. Be sure to check the fish often to ensure that it doesn't overcook.

* You can buy grill baskets made for grilling seafood - these help small pieces of fish from falling through the grill, and will help in grilling delicate fillets.
