You mean to say that only cod and salmon are only available in your part of the globe?

Having steamed fish in restaurants is pretty pricey and sometimes they over steam it. DIY is always the best! Agree?
We usually have cod, sardine and salmon. The rest are either frozen or not tasty
ReplyDeleteWhat a coincidence! I too steamed fish (Ling Cod) for dinner today! Great minds think alike! :D
ReplyDeleteI shall try your recipe next time, and with red snapper. The Ling cod was very sweet.

Wonder whether the Ling Cod is the white cod fish we have here. Is it oily and pricey?
Cheah, nowadays these kind of fish fillet really pricy! That day I bought only two slices, cost me $12.00! Like eating gold! haha... Hope you're enjoying your weekend.
ReplyDeleteCheers, kristy
What a meaty and succulent meal!

ReplyDeleteYes, especially the 'round garoupa', a piece depending on size can come up to 8 to 10 rgt. As you say, like eating gold. My fishmoger says that fish fillet and whole fish are priced differently!

It's really refreshing!
Nice and easy steam fish. Me too love easy to prepare dishes.
ReplyDeleteAuntie,
ReplyDeleteLing Cod is a fish unique to the west coast of USA & Canada. Hence, the availability and reasonable price (USD5.50 per pound) in seattle. Its a white fish but not belonging to the cod family. However, it looks similar to a cod, hence the name.
Cod fillet range from 14-16 euros per kg. Salmon (cutlet) range from 10 to 12 euros per kg
ReplyDeleteI love steamed fish. This looks really delicious. Whenever I come across really nice and fresh fish, I like to steam it too.
