A couple of fishy tips.....
Hint #1 -Thaw frozen fish in milk. The milk draws out the frozen taste and provides a fresh-caught flavor.
Hint #2 - If fish smells a little "fishy," place fish in a shallow dish; add enough milk, blended with a tablespoon or two of fresh lemon juice, to cover. Cover tightly and refrigerate for 1 hour. Do not leave the fish in the milk bath for longer than an hour, because the lactic acid in the milk will break down the connective tissue in the fish and it will tend to fall apart when cooked. Drain fish, pat dry on paper towels and use as desired. This can often salvage fish that you have kept a bit too long before using.
