Shrimp Alfredo Pasta Recipes - These Are The Fundamentals You Should Know

Fish can be cooked in many ways including baking, broiling, frying, grilling and steaming. A general rule for cooking fish is to measure it at its thickest point, then cook 8 to 10 minutes per inch. To test fish for doneness, use a fork. The fish should be opaque, its juices milky white. Undercooked fish is translucent, its juices clear and watery. Overcooked fish is dry and falls apart easily. Another test is to insert an instant-read thermometer at the thickest point and if it is done it will be 145°F.




When you buy a fish, check the eyes are clear, bright, and slightly protruded and the gills are pink or red. If the eyes are sunken, cloudy, or pink and the gills are gray, the fish is stale.

Usually I catch my own fish to cook, but occasionally I go and buy in from the store. There are many things to keep in mind when buying and cooking fish. Below are some tips for you to remember...

* In order to retain its moisture, fish needs to be cooked quickly over high heat.
* When pan frying fish, fill a skillet with 1/8 to 1/4 of an inch of oil and preheat to 350 degrees.
* For moister broiled fish, first steam or poach the fish until close to being done and then brown it under the broiler.
* To steam fish, put it in a steamer over boiling water and make sure you use a tight fitting lid.


* 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.
