coconut shrimp recipes

My major concern in buying fish is the freshness. Fresh fish smells like the sea and I would have to say that if you live far from the sea, looking for markets that sell fresh fish would really be hard since most likely majority if not all of it would definitely be selling frozen fish.

Buying and Cooking your own fish at home can be fun and rewarding. Here are some easy and quick tips for you to keep in mind as you get going...

* The fish is done cooking when it is opaque, and begins to flake.

* Try not to thaw frozen fish completely before cooking, or it may make them very dry and mushy.

* If you're using wooden skewers, be sure to soak them for 30 minutes before grilling to prevent them from burning on the grill.

* It is best to grill, broil, steam or poach oily fish so that their natural fats can drain while they are cooked.

* In thawing frozen fish, slowly thaw in the fridge for 24 hours or let the wrapped fish be run under cold water not at room temperature.
