Looking For Details Regarding Fresh Fish Online

By Connie Sears


A large number of people want to know more about healthy eating habits, and often discover information about fresh fish online. There are many ways to prepare this dish, such as fried or grilled, and people will also find that it is very good for them in terms of health. It contains many substances that are needed by the body, such as protein, omega-3 and calcium.

Although most fishes are very healthy to eat, some may be harmful if they are eaten too regularly. The safest varieties to consume are those with very low mercury levels, and they can be eaten a few times per week without any danger. Salmon varieties which are non-toxic include chum, king salmon, Coho and sockeye. Anchovies, catfish, herring, calamari, sardines and trout are very popular food dishes as well, that can be prepared in various ways.

The intake of some types of fishes should be limited to just once a week, such as the black sea bass, red snapper, sablefish and black cod. The mercury levels within a few varieties can be a problem for humans, especially for expecting woman and women who intend to fall pregnant. High mercury levels are potentially harmful to nursing mothers as well.

Freshly caught varieties such as the swordfish, shark, king mackerel and certain tuna, like the bluefin and yellowfin, fall into this category. Humans should also be wary of fish like these that have been handled by manufacturers. Sometimes the canning and processing procedures cause them to be harmful as well.

People often wonder how they can tell the freshness of their purchase. This is actually quite easy when you know how fresh catches should look. Start by determining its aroma. It should smell 'fishy', but not overly so, and may even remind you of the seaside or murky water. Fish that live in different environments will have a slightly different smell. Regardless though, it should be a clean aroma.

Feel the skin of the one you want to buy, and make sure that it does not feel overly slippery or slimy. The skin should be taught and firm, and should not leave an impression if you place pressure on it. It should easily spring back to its original form, and not leave a hole. This will indicate if it has been freshly caught or not.

Take a good look at the eyes of the animal, and determine if they are bright and shiny, or sunken. If there has been a loss of moisture due to aging, the eyes may sink. This is obviously a bad sign. The color of the body is important. It should not have any brownish or grayish markings on it, and should be quite bright. If you lift the gills, you should see a bit of red coloring.

When researching fresh fish online, you will discover that some types are easier to prepare than others. Catfish have no scales, which is convenient, and salmon can be cooked very easily. It is also one of the healthiest varieties, as it is high in omega-3. Pike is a bit more difficult, as it has many bones.
