Kitchen Hint of the Day!

Something Fishy......


Buying fish..........
Do not refreeze fish that has already been thawed. If you do, it can breakdown the fish tissue and this is how fish can sometimes go soggy. To store snap-frozen fish, leave it in its original packaging and place in your freezer. Otherwise, pop your fish in a zip-lock bag, submersed into cold water to get rid of the air bubbles then seal it shut. That way the fish can be as close to vacuum packed as possible, or you can go out and purchase a vacuum packed machine if that's easier.

To thaw frozen fish........
For the freshest results, we suggest thawing your fish for half an hour or so before preparation. Immerse unopened packages in cool water for about 20 minutes to thaw. During this time, prepare ingredients and preheat your oven or grill. Once thawed, remove fish from package, rinse under cool water, and pat dry.
