Recipes For Sea Bass Ground Rules
When cooking fish, it's easy to see the degree of doneness. The meat turns white and loses transparency. Just as with a steak, when the fish appears done on one side, you just flip it over until the fish is done, right through to the center. Test with a fork. If you can cut the fish easily with the fork and there are no transparent or fork-heavy sections, the fish is done.
It seems that many people are afraid of cooking fish at home. Americans eat only about fifteen pounds of fish per person per year, but we eat twice as much fish in restaurants as at home. Buying, storing, and cooking fish isn't difficult, it just requires a little knowledge.
I was looking for a complete recipe book that had loads of different fish recipes, and how to prepare them properly. One that even my spouse and children could use and enjoy. I ended up finding a great one online.

Fish can be prepared using almost any type of cooking method. From baking, steaming, frying, grilling, broiling, or slow cooking. When cooking fish, it is important not to overcook, which will result in dry and somewhat tasteless meat. A general rule is to cook a fish 10 minutes for each inch of thickness. (not be used for deep frying or microwaving fish) The fish should be cooked until it has reached an internal temperature of at least 145ºF.
Here is another one of my favorite fish recipes.
Ingredients:
1 1/4 pounds fresh or frozen halibut 2 teaspoons vegetable oil 3/4 cup bread crumbs 2 tablespoons of grated parmesan cheese 1 tablespoon of fresh tarragon, snipped or 1/2 teaspoon dried crushed tarragon 1/2 teaspooon paprika A dash of pepper
Preheat oven to 450ºF.
Cut thawed fish into four portions, then pat dry and brush with cooking oil.
Stir together bread crumbs, parmesan cheese, tarragon, paprika and pepper. Dip fish into crumb mixture to coat both sides. Sprinkle any leftover crumb mixture on top.
Bake fish, uncovered for 8 to 12 minutes in a hot oven, until fish flakes easily with a fork. Do not turn over while baking.
I like to serve with fresh lemon wedges.
Grilling season is here. You've got your grill full of gas, you've stocked up on hamburgers, hot dogs, and steaks, and you're ready to go. Fish also makes a healthy meal, and grills up quite easily. Seafood does present some grilling challenges, however, here are some tips should help you on your way to grilling great seafood.
* Never use water from close proximity marinas, municipal or industrial discharges, always use potable water. * To steam fish, put it in a steamer over boiling water and make sure you use a tight fitting lid.
* Be careful not to over stuff the fish if you are using a breadcrumb stuffing, because breadcrumbs expand when cooking.

* Another test to use for doneness is to check the meat with a knife to see if it is firm and beginning to separate or flake.
