Everyone knows that fish is good for you. The fats in fish, especially fatty fish like salmon, tuna, and mackerel, are thought to help prevent heart disease, and can even aid in preventing diseases like Alzheimer's and strokes.
Americans tend to eat twice as many fish dinners at restaurants as they do at home largely because they are unsure how to properly prepare fish. Here are some easy and common sense tips about cooking fish at home.
* The fish is done cooking when it is opaque, and begins to flake.
* If the fish has been properly cooked, the meat will appear opaque but will still be moist.
* Fish sticks to the grill very easily, so proper lubrication is essential.
* If you use very fresh fish, your recipe has more chance of being a great success.
* Some varieties of fish contain more fat, such as salmon or tuna, which can be cooked until opaque on the outside while remaining somewhat translucent on the inside.
