(Easy Seafood Recipes)

Don’t wait until Friday to serve seafood such as fish or shellfish. Now that packaged frozen fish, as well as fresh and canned varieties are so widely distributed, you can serve fish any day and be sure of most delicious eating if you cook it properly. Many of them are sea bass, sword fish, tuna, monkfish (also known as anglerfish) and sturgeon. For the other fish dishes I have found substitutes. Texture is a crucial element, and I have tried to match as well as taste.

Most fresh fish and shellfish are at their best when prepared as soon as they are purchased, as they deteriorate with storage. Usually they are cooked quickly to preserve their delicate character, but some recipes call for longer cooking to achieve a desired texture or for a dish to reach its full flavor. For example, thick steaks cut from large, meaty fish such as swordfish are sometimes braised slowly in sauce and then cut into portions like a meat roast. Olive oil poaching, which calls for covering the fish with olive oil and cooking it at a very low temperature until the fish has absorbed most of the oil, produces moist, flavorful fish that keeps for a week.

Fish, whether fresh, frozen, and glassed or canned is a nutritious and easily digested food. It is an excellent source of highly digestible protein, as well as B vitamins, thiamine, riboflavin, and niacin, and contains iron and an abundance of calcium and phosphorus. Oily fish contain some vitamin D. Fish roe is an excellent source of vitamin A. Salt water fish and shellfish contain more iodine than any other common food.
