]]> Are you looking for a delicious and healthy food to add to your diet? Look no further than fish! Not only is it packed with protein, but it also contains essential vitamins and minerals that can benefit your overall health.

Omega-3

One of the main benefits of fish is its high omega-3 fatty acid content. Omega-3s are essential fatty acids that our bodies cannot produce on their own, so we need to get them from our diet. These fatty acids have been shown to reduce inflammation in the body, which can help lower the risk of chronic diseases such as heart disease, cancer, and arthritis.

Good for Brain Health

Eating fish can also benefit your brain health. The omega-3s found in fish have been shown to improve cognitive function, memory, and mood. They may even help reduce the risk of developing dementia or Alzheimer’s disease.

Vitamin D

Fish is also a great source of vitamin D, which is important for maintaining healthy bones and teeth. Vitamin D also plays a role in immune function and can help reduce the risk of certain autoimmune diseases.

Different Ways to Prepare It

Incorporating fish into your diet is easy and delicious. Try grilled salmon, baked tilapia, or sushi rolls made with fresh tuna. Just be sure to choose fish that is low in mercury and other contaminants, and aim to eat it at least twice a week for maximum health benefits.

]]> Love poké bowls? So do we! The Hawaiian dish has spread its wings and is now made in practically every country. One of the key features of poké is the cubes of raw fish. As it is uncooked, it is crucial to get fish that is as fresh as possible. Here is how to check if your swimmer is sashimi-grade. 

Brightness

When fish is fresh, it’s vibrant. Tuna is a deep red, while salmon holds true to “salmon pink”. Look for pieces that have a bright color and no discoloration. Avoid those with brown or gray marks.

Texture

Sashimi-grade fish is the highest quality you can get. It should be smooth and slightly firm when touched, but without a fibrous or mushy consistency. It should feel slightly firm to the touch. You want a melt-in-your-mouth sensation when you bite into it.  

Smell

You know that strong, fishy smell that we associate with seafood? Yeah, that’s a bad thing. Truly fresh fish doesn’t smell fishy; it smells like the ocean.

Freezing

Some species of fish need to be frozen at low temperatures to kill off any potential parasites that may be lurking about. Overall, though, you want to use fish that has not been properly frozen when making something like poké or sushi that requires eating it raw.

]]> Salmon is a dish so versatile that it is equally as good for a dinner party as it is for supper on a Tuesday night. There are many ways to prepare salmon—from glazing it with teriyaki sauce to baking it with lemon butter—but there are just as many ways to mess it up. To prevent said travesty, here are some tricks to keep you swimming upstream. 

Keep Cool

With some proteins, a searing hot pan is needed. Salmon, however, is not one of those. Cooking the fish on too high a heat will release a protein in the form of a white goo, so it’s best to keep the stove on medium-low during the cooking process.

Crispy and Crunchy

Some salmon pieces come skinless, but on the chance that there’s skin on your fish, don’t let it go to waste. Begin by placing the salmon skin-side down in the pan to get it lightly browned and crispy, then flip it over and cook the other side. You’ll forget all about chicken skin after tasting how good this is. 

Test the Temp

After all the effort of making salmon, the last thing you want is for it to be overcooked. Aim for medium to medium-rare, with the fish still pink in the center. A meat thermometer can be used to test how done the salmon is, with a temperature between 135-145°F being ideal. After removing it from the pan, allow the fish to rest for a few minutes, just as you would a steak.

]]> Have you just bought a filet of salmon and you aren’t quite sure what the best method for preparing it is? While salmon might seem like an intimidating fish to cook, there’s no need to worry because there are plenty of preparations that make this fish taste great.

Here are the three best ways to prepare salmon.

Pan-frying

Pan-frying salmon is one of my favorite ways to prepare a filet of this fish. I recommend adding a little bit of olive oil to a cast-iron pan, during your stove on medium heat, and cooking the fish until it is thoroughly done on both sides and in the middle, about 7-8 minutes total.

Baking

Baking is another easy way to prepare salmon, requiring very little effort and time. Depending on the size of your fillet, only about 8-10 minutes in an oven that has been pre-heated to 400 degrees Fahrenheit should do the trick.

Grilling

Are you lucky enough to own a grill? This is a great way to prepare salmon in a unique and exciting way. A charcoal grill can be a great solution, but if you have hickory chips or mesquite chips, this is a great way to leave the wood’s character on the salmon’s flavor.

  4. Carefully place the battered fish fillets into the hot oil. Fry for 5-7 minutes, or until the batter is golden brown and the fish is cooked through. Use a slotted spoon to remove the fish from the oil and drain them on paper towels.
  5. Return the par-cooked potato fries to the hot oil and fry for an additional 3-4 minutes, or until they are golden brown and crispy. Remove them from the oil and drain them on paper towels.
  6. Season the fish and chips with salt to taste. Serve the homemade fish and chips hot, accompanied by your favorite condiments such as tartar sauce, malt vinegar, or lemon wedges. It will be made even better with another British classic; mushy peas!

]]> Love poké bowls? So do we! The Hawaiian dish has spread its wings and is now made in practically every country. One of the key features of poké is the cubes of raw fish. As it is uncooked, it is crucial to get fish that is as fresh as possible. Here is how to check if your swimmer is sashimi-grade. 

Brightness

When fish is fresh, it’s vibrant. Tuna is a deep red, while salmon holds true to “salmon pink”. Look for pieces that have a bright color and no discoloration. Avoid those with brown or gray marks.

Texture

Sashimi-grade fish is the highest quality you can get. It should be smooth and slightly firm when touched, but without a fibrous or mushy consistency. It should feel slightly firm to the touch. You want a melt-in-your-mouth sensation when you bite into it.  

Smell

You know that strong, fishy smell that we associate with seafood? Yeah, that’s a bad thing. Truly fresh fish doesn’t smell fishy; it smells like the ocean.

Freezing

Some species of fish need to be frozen at low temperatures to kill off any potential parasites that may be lurking about. Overall, though, you want to use fish that has not been properly frozen when making something like poké or sushi that requires eating it raw.

]]> Salmon is a dish so versatile that it is equally as good for a dinner party as it is for supper on a Tuesday night. There are many ways to prepare salmon—from glazing it with teriyaki sauce to baking it with lemon butter—but there are just as many ways to mess it up. To prevent said travesty, here are some tricks to keep you swimming upstream. 

Keep Cool

With some proteins, a searing hot pan is needed. Salmon, however, is not one of those. Cooking the fish on too high a heat will release a protein in the form of a white goo, so it’s best to keep the stove on medium-low during the cooking process.

Crispy and Crunchy

Some salmon pieces come skinless, but on the chance that there’s skin on your fish, don’t let it go to waste. Begin by placing the salmon skin-side down in the pan to get it lightly browned and crispy, then flip it over and cook the other side. You’ll forget all about chicken skin after tasting how good this is. 

Test the Temp

After all the effort of making salmon, the last thing you want is for it to be overcooked. Aim for medium to medium-rare, with the fish still pink in the center. A meat thermometer can be used to test how done the salmon is, with a temperature between 135-145°F being ideal. After removing it from the pan, allow the fish to rest for a few minutes, just as you would a steak.

]]> Have you just bought a filet of salmon and you aren’t quite sure what the best method for preparing it is? While salmon might seem like an intimidating fish to cook, there’s no need to worry because there are plenty of preparations that make this fish taste great.

Here are the three best ways to prepare salmon.

Pan-frying

Pan-frying salmon is one of my favorite ways to prepare a filet of this fish. I recommend adding a little bit of olive oil to a cast-iron pan, during your stove on medium heat, and cooking the fish until it is thoroughly done on both sides and in the middle, about 7-8 minutes total.

Baking

Baking is another easy way to prepare salmon, requiring very little effort and time. Depending on the size of your fillet, only about 8-10 minutes in an oven that has been pre-heated to 400 degrees Fahrenheit should do the trick.

Grilling

Are you lucky enough to own a grill? This is a great way to prepare salmon in a unique and exciting way. A charcoal grill can be a great solution, but if you have hickory chips or mesquite chips, this is a great way to leave the wood’s character on the salmon’s flavor.

Fish Molie is a traditional Travancore dish from Kerala served with appam/hoppers especially for Easter and Xmas. Since Easter is round the corner and ever since I saw the gourmet egg hoppers on the feed of @bobbyretnakumargeetha, a chef of Asha’s who also happens to be from my place, fish molie and appams have been in my mind. A big shout out for Bobby as I was so impressed seeing his biodata and his cookbooks. Hez the one who started sharing revolution in fine dining where small portions of 3-4 dishes are served and a book on it The Indian cuisine. Totally in love with his book Beyond curry, which shares many Kerala cuisines. Traditional dishes in fusion form and gourmet forms plated perfectly. Pls do chk out his feed and get his books from amazon for many creative ideas. Catch up with my video for the fish molie which can be served for Easter. #fishmolie #fishincoconutmilk #fish #easter #keralacuisine #travancorecuisine #foodblogger #keralafood #cuisines #recipeshare #youtuber #recipes #simiskitchendiaries #vsco
